declaration
Elder Books & Collectables has clarified that the 1920 Carnacki the Ghost Finder by William Hope Hodgson (LA223802) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being 1920
condition
Aumber of faint indentations to cloth boards possibly showing through from underneath, small crease to cloth in middle of spine, front & rear inner hinges have at some time been reinforced plus approx 6 further pages that have had some minor tape restoration to inner margins (see image for example ), pencil or crayon name and lines to half title & endpaper, all pages are age toned & browned to margins.
Overall a number of faults mostly internally but nothing to serious and still a good- very acceptable good copy with boards firmly attached.
