Naval and Military Trophies and Personal Relics of British Heroes - Holmes, Richard R.
Price : £175.00
Publisher : John C.Nimmo
Published : 1896
Edition : 1st Edition
Binding : Hard
Condition : Very Good
Jacket : J
A spectacular copy of this spectacular volume, with its 36 tissue-guarded chromo-lithographs. All edges gilt, navy blue pattern cloth with ornate gilt blcok of Britannia atop her lion, sailor and soldier (but not yet airman). Puce(?)(pale brown-purple) endpapers show where two bookplates have been carefully removed, otherwise the book is very good, almost fine, the spine only being slightly darkened. The spine is dated 1897 at the foot. In original slipcase, worn, the illustrated front-of-box paper darkened but colorful and complete apart from two very small edge losses. The weight would involve extra postage abroad, but we can send to most mainland British addresses free of extra charge. The full price in 1896/7 was seven guineas, the equivalent of around £800 today, though I dare say some were sold more cheaply.
