Between the Covers

Hardcover. Octavo. pp. [1-5] 6-239. Bound in 19th century half morocco and marbled paper over boards. A probably later manuscript copy of Mittelberger's *Reise nach Pennsylvanien*: the manuscript appears to have been reproduced in collotype (circa 1875). In German. Ex-library copy with small number stamp at the bottom of the title page and small blind-embossed name stamp on a few scattered pages. The leather spine back is detached (laid-in), both joints are split (with the boards still holding at the stitches), wear to the board edges, else very good. A beautifully written copy. This now classic work was translated into English by Theodor Eben in 1898.
