James Greenwood

Publisher: S.O. Beeton, 1866, true first edition in book form.

Good condition, bound in green cloth with gilt titles and decorations on the spine and top board, all edges gilt. The book has been re-spined with the original spine strip laid on. New endpapers. Foxing throughout, text block uneven, and one page misaligned with some small chips to its top edge and a repaired closed tear.  Illustrated throughout within the text. A rare first edition.
