The volume bears the armorial bookplate of James C. Dewar of vegry, on the front pastedown, a brief Xmas inscription dated 1913 on the front free endpaper, and another name in ink at the top of the title page. Inside all in good order with some browning to the page edges and the first pages, and very occasional marks on some few pages, mostly all quite clean throughout. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 007943
