Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound. With some tanning to the endpapers and the outside edges and some light scattered spotting in the text. This copy has not been written in and there are no other markings of previous ownership.

Grey cloth covered boards have lovely floral decoration to the front and spine and have bevelled edges. The front board is in super condition with just a couple of faint brown spot marks and rubbing to the corner tips. The rear board has a white mark near the spine (see photo 2), else good. The spine has tanned in comparison to the front and back and there is some rubbing to the cloth at the head and tail with some loss to the top (see close-up photo). The decoration remains clearly visible and the binding is good and strong.

Your antique copy of Stories For Children In Illustration of the Lord's Prayer will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to include a gift card and message if desired.

H 21 cm x W 15.5 cm, 265 pages, 0.77 kg. I dispatch worldwide daily from the UK. (There are just a very few countries which I am unable to ship to).

* If you would prefer for your book not to be decoratively wrapped but sent simply in the full protective packaging please add a note to the order.
