Foxing
Spotting on a book, usually brown spots found on paper, of varying severity, caused by a chemical action wherein impurities in the paper oxidize. This is often exacerbated by an excessively humid climate, but the "cause" is the composition of the paper itself, and some books are simply more prone to foxing than others. Of the 300 printed copies of Ernest Hemingway's first book, Three Stories and Ten Poems, such as this copy offered in our Catalog 82, many have foxing. Why are these brown spots called foxing? It could be because the color of the spots reminded someone of the animal, but no one really knows for sure. The term goes back to the 1840s or before, and everyone we've spoken to from that time period has been unusually mum on the subject. Any bookseller or librarian who claims to know the derivation is either making the explanation up on the spot or was duped themselves.more
