18065649Philadelphia: Samuel F. Bradford and Murray Fairman and Co. Fair. 1806. Leather Bound. Complete set of 41 volumes plus 6 illustrated volumes published between 1806 and 1820 in half-volume jobs. This is the US edition of the British original published between 1802 and 1820. All books appear to be complete except for some blank endpages of Illustrated Volume I. Covers are quite worn and four front covers are detached Volumes I VI X and Illustrated I and two more noticeably loose Volume VIII and Illustrated II. Illustrated I has tapemarks from poor repair work and the title page is torn. On most volumes the title pastedowns on spine have fallen off. Three volumes have a little water damage most extensively on Volume XV -- but even that is isolated mainly to cover and endpages. Volume XVI has child's drawings on one blank endsheet. On Illustrated III the foldouts are worn on the edges but still intact. Some foxing but no mold. Occasional creases and waviness. Ex-owner plate in each volume "The property of Phineas J. Miller bequeathed to him by his uncle Phineas Janney and his aunt Sarah S. Janney. 1852-3." All in all despite the wear to the covers the set is nicely preserved. ; Vol. 1/1/2047 . Samuel F.

1860007988Philadelphia: By the Author 1860. First Edition. Blindstamped Cloth. Very Good. A few names still well-remembered with accounts of many now a distant memory from what had been the largest city in the United States until the late 18th Century. 8vo. 23.5 by 16 cm. 223 pp. 20 plates half of which are portraits with tinted background and the other half are maps or diagrams of streets. These diagrams in most instances have indications of the owners of storefronts. Two of the maps are folding expanding by their width. The widest with three folds doesn't name proprietors of stores but has pleasant drawings of the buildings although these drawings have a generic quality like Monopoly buildings and thus aren't reliable as a visual source of the actual appearance of the riverfront at the time. Although this was privately printed as indicated by its being published by the Author there is a substantial subscription list almost six pages long at the end. Howes R321. Condition: erosion of cloth at spine extremities. Tearing along joints repaired but still apparent where there was tear. Corners rubbed and other typical symptoms of shelfwear. Slight cocking of text block -- front board overhangs over rear board. Foxing generally light and other than along page edges quite occasional -- we don't think the foxing and other soiling and/or age toning is going to be disconcerting to most. By the Author unknown
