1932 Cranford by Elizabeth Gaskell / JM Dent & Sons, London / Delightfully Illustrated by CE Brock / Vintage Book in Very Good Condition

A beautiful looking vintage edition of Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford. Published in 1932 by JM Dent & Sons, London. Richly illustrated with sixteen charming colour plates by CE Brock. Has gilt topped pages, and decorative boards.

Inside the book opens with decorated endpapers. All of the pages are clean, bright and tightly bound with no writing or inscriptions. All sixteen colour plates are present as called for. Has partially cracked hinges at the front and back, giving the boards a very slight wobble, but this is minor and the binding of the text block is good and strong.

Pale grey cloth covered boards have ornate red decoration to the front, and gilt to the spine. Again in very good order. With just some very slight darkening around the edges. The gilt has remained shiny bright.

Your antique copy of Cranford will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift message to the parcel if desired.
