Engraving dated 1826, a schematic illustrating the construction of an East
Indiaman sailing vessel. In four panes (folded, from book) 10.5 x 8 inches
folded, about 10.5 x 31 inches extended. All very good except that the
adhesive along one fold that set out the engraving on a stub in the book has
created some acid burn and points of separation along that fold - needs
archival restoration at that fold. Otherwise very good. Publishers are
Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orne and Brown
 
Offered today to list members for $95 postpaid (regular price $125)
