Beautiful Britain: Abbotsford
London, Adam & Charles Black. 1912, First. Cloth, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Blue embossed boards show light rubbing, bumping and shelfwear with light chipping at top and bottom of spine. Front edge of spine has small dent and there is a small bumped abrasion near the center of front board. Foxing is evident on all three edges, some of which has penetrated to leaves. Interior is tight. Two of the 12 color illustrations have been scribbled/scrawled on in pencil, as has the blank reverse page of a third illustration. It is interesting to note that the last listed illustration in the List of Illustrations has been corrected by hand in terms of page location, perhaps by the publisher. 64 pp. There are two found items in this book which the seller will include. One is a valentime type heart creation in paper and ribbon with the initial M in pencil on the back. The other is a wallpaper, paper and ribbon creation, intended to hang, with a small stapled booklet glued on comprising a 1935 calendar of which leaves for the months January through April have been removed. The calendar was probably supplied by the British Post Office because it has a few pages of postal rates information at the rear. Good+/No Jacket as Issued.
