Product Description

Extraordinary antique hardback volume documenting the illustrious "Masters of the Bench of the Hon. Society of the Inner Temple" spanning centuries from 1450-1883, alongside "Masters of the Temple" from 1540-1883. This remarkable legal antiquarian work represents an invaluable piece of English legal heritage, produced in 1883 and notably marked "NOT PUBLISHED" indicating its exclusive nature.

This distinguished volume features:
• Comprehensive biographical records of Inner Temple benchers across four centuries
• Detailed genealogical and professional histories of legal luminaries
• Rare unpublished status making it exceptionally scarce for collectors
• Original hardback binding with period-appropriate dark brown cloth covers
• Complete provenance from Colchester Public Library Reference Department
• Meticulous documentation of knighthoods, judicial appointments, and legal careers

The book exhibits honest age-related wear consistent with its 140-year antiquity, including some page edge browning and minor cover spotting, yet remains structurally sound with all pages intact. An extraordinary acquisition for legal historians, genealogists, or collectors of rare English legal manuscripts - representing a unique window into centuries of British legal tradition.
