A lovely copy of Thomas Stanley's History of Philosophy, here bound in a library binding, and thus very readable.
-------------------
Size: 210 x 263 mm (approx.)
Condition:
[(2), t.p., a2-g4, A1-7U2, (1)]
Recent library binding, externally fine, well bound with the binding not overly tight. Lacks original blank at rear else collates as complete. No attached bookplates. Extensive manuscript writing in an early hand, probably contemporary, to front blank verso. Ink ownership inscription across title page, not obscuring. Contents page has been contemporaneously ruled in red with page numbers handwritten. Text block toned as typical with the odd spot of foxing, else very clean throughout. An excellent copy.
