Hi,
This lot is a 1921 Original Hardback Wisden
This year is one of the rarest Hardbacks I find and very under rated in the rarity stakes , this is rare but only in just Good Condition, but very nicely priced.
The boards are quite dark and marked , the spine cloth is also a bit dark and the gilt is a touch darkened , the front gilt is bright.
Internally the pastedowns follow the dark theme and the hinges are weak but not broken some mesh can be seen between page 2 and 3. Some pencil markings inside.
One thing that is special is that to the title page it states "To C Stewart Caine from Sydney Pardon" so the current editor to a future editor so this was once owned by an editor of Wisden.
Nice inside. Excellent Photoplate and a unique Wisden but condition could be better.
Please see the large pictures. More available on request. Buy-it-now.
More Photos on request.
Payment: Card , Cheque or BACS or Paypal.
Postage: £8 - which covers special delivery fully insured & Jiffy Bag.
Happy Collecting.
Cheers
Chris
