Hardback, 8vo maroon cloth boards, gilt titles, first edition, 219pp. plus index, Photographic illustrations. Good +++/Less than good. Gift Inscription. Boards slightly bumped. Block slightly slippy with dusting to top. Dustwrapper (now protected) has shelfwear around edges. Unfortunately a large area of rear is lost - perhaps 7cm x 5cm, with further 1 sq cm loss to top. Front still intact, though, and with protection is still easy to handle. A delightful guide to the diversity of furniture, porcelain and utensils typically found in the British rural cottage, of interest to the collector but also to the general reader.
