1898 Wisden Paperback – Super Condition

This is a Super condition 1898 Paperback Wisden. The 35th edition.

Considering this is a 127-year-old edition it is super.

The original front and rear wrappers are present and they are delightful – there is some minor ageing on the fromt and rear spine edge, and the spine is super. It has at some stage been professionally strengthened.

Internally the condition of the pages can be described as in lovely+ condition – there is some ageing to the outside edges of some pages. The photo-plate and the facing tissue guard are present and they are in splendid condition.

The page block is, as you would expect, a little dusty.
