About This Item
144 Pages.
This is a very old (1846) book on Astronomy that has been copied many times since, though this one is probably the original copy. The book's exterior has much wear on it (see photos). There are worn areas on the front and rear covers, on all four corners, along all of its edges, at the top and bottom of the spine, and along both sides of the spine. The interior book has browned pages, stains, and foxing throughout it, though all of the printing and the numerous illustrations remain completely readable and the book's bindings remarkably enough remain tight and therefore presumably are sound.
If you should order this classic old book on Astronomy from us, we will carefully wrap it up then box it, pad it, and mail it right away to you with both tracking and insurance and it will come with our genuine gratitude for your order.
