Beschreibung

N.d., circa 1890. The head stands at the top of the 36 cm, or 14.5 inch, object, and is itself about 4 cm, 1.5 inches, tall. The cuts on the head are a wee bit coarse but the head resulting is a realistic representation of a man from an earlier era -- he has some characteristics of an 18th century figure, but also of a man of the Renaissance, and probably he doesn't quite fit in either period. The paper cutter is sleek and smooth, as required ideally for opening uncut pages in which a dull-edged knife serves best. Given its length, it would seem that the object might also have been intended to serve as a bookmark, and the two functions, paper cutting and bookmarking, go hand and hand, since a reader would have wanted to keep the paper cutter handy as he is leafing through a book.

Versandbedingungen

The shipping cost provided automatically by ABE assumes that the item is the size of an average hardcover book. Since our stock is comprised largely of material which is bigger and heavier, we will often need to request additional shipping charges as a result. We pride ourselves on always packing safely, with the actual materials and method of packing depending on the item(s), where it is going, and with whom we are shipping. We most frequently use the post office, but on some high value items, or upon request, we may use alternatively UPS or FedEx. With the postal service, to domestic destinations with lower value items and the automatically furnished ABE shipping quote, we will usually use Media Mail; on higher value items we are partial to Priority or Express Mail. We will always seek to comply with a customer's wishes if they are communicated to us. When we seek additional shipping charges, we pass along those charges at our cost -- we do not add for handling or materials generally.
