1905 The Birds and Their Story - A Book For Young Folk by RB Lodge / Charles H Kelly, London / In Very Good Condition / Richly Illustrated

In very good condition here is a lovely antique copy of The Birds and Their Story - A Book For Young Folk by RB Lodge. Undated but research shows it to have been published in 1905 by Charles R Kelly, London. Richly illustrated throughout with many black and white plates plus a handful in colour.

Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound. With tanning to the first and last couple of pages. Has a large inked inscription on the verso of the half-title page (see photos), but no other writing or markings of previous ownership. With a small nick to the bottom of one page. All edges are shiny gilt.

Olive-green cloth covered boards have shiny gilt decoration to the front and spine. Again in top order. With a little rubbing to the corners/spine ends and the odd faint shelf wear mark - but all minor. In no way looks to be 120 years old!

Your antique copy of The Birds and Their Story will be wrapped with great care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift card with a message if desired.
