Beschreibung
Beschreibung:
Fourth edition. 72 pages complete, with the frontispiece illustration of the chess board. A small pamphlet bound in the original wraps, with the title and price label to the upper cover, approximately one third of the spine strip survives and looks to have been neatly repaired with glue at some point, the covers are slightly marked, creased and rubbed, with some small chips to the edges. The text block is slightly age toned, there are some small stains, light grubby marks and the corners are softened, rubbed and creased. An early edition of this notable chess pamphlet, which was first published in 1797 in London but has become better known in its 1802 Philadelphia imprint as the earliest book on chess currently known to have been printed in America. This example can make no such claims but it is undoubtably a rare and remarkable survival in the original wraps. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 6792
