Lynton And Lynmouth: A Pageant Of Cliff & Moorland by John Presland (1918 1st)

Description: Condition Continued: If I had seen it on any of the other text pages that face a glossy illustration page I would call it foxing, but I didn't, so it's a little mysterious. The top page edge is a faded green. The middle and bottom page edges are deckled or rough-cut. They did a good job. I noticed only two instances where a very small bit of the outer edge of one page got pulled over onto the next one. I didn't see any conspicuous creasing on any of the pages. There are no markings. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. I usually begin with the condition of the covers. You can see them in the photos. They are quite clean. The gilt lettering on both the front cover and the spine is very bright. The six edges are in excellent shape, no rubbing. The four corners have only very small spots of rubbing. The spine ends have just the usual bit of crinkling/bending, and a tiny bit of rubbing. The book is pretty square and the spine is pretty straight. The binding of the covers is very solid. As mentioned I turned over all the pages and I can report that there are two instances where there is a clear space at the juncture between two facing pages. All four of the pages are solidly bound from top to bottom. There is a very thin space going down a couple of inches from the top edge at the juncture between the last page and the rear end paper, nothing much of anything. Dodd, Mead & Company, New York, 1918. Hardcover. Written by John Presland. Illustrated by F. J. Widgery. First Edition (NAP, 1918 on the Title Page).
