First publication of On Mr. Fechter's Acting By Charles Dickens 1869 Atlantic Monthly Volume XXIV



Portsmouth Vintage Bookstore is auctioning off the hard to find first publication of Charles Dickens On Mr. Fechter's Acting in the pages of Atlantic Monthly Volume XXIV, published back in 1869.





The Atlantic Monthly, Volume XXIV

1869

Boston: Fields, Osgood, & Co.

Marble and leather boards. Former library book, with book plate and library stamp on interior of front cover. Complete, with all pages present and firmly attached, with exception of title page and the black page proceeding it - which is loose at binding but remains attached. A previous owner used black tape on spine and yellow tape on the interior of the front and back boards along the book's bindings. Despite these amateur restorations, the book has great eye appeal for its age.


This seven day auction ends of Saturday, November 7.
