Patterned endpapers are age-toned and carry one black latin Ex-Libris Bristow stamp on the celery green decorative endpapers with white ships wheels scatttered all over and The English Scene in grass green printed at head of fep and frt pastedown.

This is volume three of The English Scene edited by Mr. Eric Parker who has written the introduction. Illustrated with 8 b/w full page plates.
