David Balfour: Being Memoirs of His Adventures at Home and Abroad : the Second Part ... Written by Himself and Now Set Forth | 
#VintageEdition posting! This edition is 106 years old and was found at a local bookstore here in the Poconos. The illustrations are extraordinary, and they have the tissue paper over each to preserve the superb work. Unfortunately, there's no gift dedication in this one, but it's in great shape. Can't go wrong with a Robert Louis Stevenson 😁👍🏻.
read_diverse_books Impressive! I have a few books just as old that are also in great shape. 😁 8y

becausetrains Lovely edition - and as an archivist, I love printers that used those tissue flyleaves to keep the illustrations from fading or bleeding. Brings an element of lost class to the book. 📕 8y
kspenmoll What a find! 8y
audiothing How lovely, I do like "set forth by". 8y
quirkyreader Another great score for the collection 🐸🐙 Soon you an BB will need a lockable secretary for all those wonderful tomes. 8y
PatriciaU Do you collect anything specific? I ask because my library received the contents of an antiquarian bookstore as a bequest last year and we're still working through the stock. If there's something specific you collect, I'd be happy to see what we've got. Sale profit goes to our foundation. The bookstore owner was a Monuments Man (for real!) so the collection is very eclectic. 8y
