1880 Mansfield Park by Jane Austen / Richard Bentley, London / Lovely Antique Hardback In Good Condition

In good condition, here is a scarce copy of Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Published in 1880 by Richard Bentley, London. In the original publisher's binding.

Inside the pages are good being clean, bright and tightly bound. With some pencil inscriptions to the front free endpaper, but no other writing or markings of previous ownership. Gapes at the gutter in a couple of places near the middle of the book, where the pages are a little wobbly at the top, but remain firmly attached at the bottom. Has a partial crack to the rear hinge. With a black and white illustrated frontispiece, else unillustrated.

In the original publisher's dark green cloth covered boards with ornate stamped pattern to the front and back and with gilt decoration to the spine. Again, clean and smart. Has a split to the cloth across the top of the spine (see close-up photo), and to a lesser extent on the bottom edge. Has rubbing and mild bumping around the outside edges of the boards. With some slight rubbing also to the rear board. The gilt on the spine is lovely and bright.

Definitely one for the collector or for a special gift. Your antique copy of Mansfield Park will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged with tracking and insurance. I am always happy to include a gift card and message.
