1886 First Edition | Post-Laureate Idyls fashion And Other Poems By Oscar Fay Adams | D. Lothrop And Company | Near Fine Antique Book

Post-Laureate Idyls And Other Poems By Oscar Fay Adams, First Edition 1886. Published by D. Lothrop And Company, Boston. Near Fine Condition.

This is a very bright, clean, unread copy of this beautiful antique fashion poetry book. This book features gilding on the top page edge, and a royal blue cloth binding with gilt lettering and floral decoration on the cover and spine. Intricate black line pattern stamped into the front cover that carries over on the spine. This book has an antique stitch binding that is fully intact and well preserved.

The front end page is inscribed to the previous owner "Christmas 1902". The book is tightly bound. The pages and binding are in unread to very lightly read condition. There are no torn, bent or missing pages. All pages are clean and bright. Some toning due to age along page edges. No Foxing or soiling. The corners are slightly bumped and the spine has some shelf wear and bumping on the top and bottom.

Please reference photos to help gauge condition. I tried to open the book as little as possible while photographing it for this listing. Please send me a message if you would like any additional photos!
