Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

This amazing early volume appears to be complete and intact - the work includes a title page, there are no obvious gaps or losses within the text and the work ends properly with a final page.


That said, we have not collated the work and therefore as a firm we do not guarantee that the volume is complete and it is not sold as such. 



There is evidence of loss to the page prior to title page, the binding is worn and scuffed, corners bumped, some foxing but overall fairly good
