About the Item
We are delighted to offer for sale this very nice 1872 edition of The Pilgrims progress and other works of John Bunyan.
A very old and original book, its owned by my mother who was gifted it by her late husband, he had it rebound or restored I think it the 1990s, it was valued then around £600-£700, apparently, this is a rare year or maybe edition, I’m no book, expert.
The condition is as you see it, the dust jacket has rips and wears but at least its present, the binding looks good and solid, the paper has discoloring but I can’t see any rips or missing pages. The illustrations look to be plate engraved prints and are very fine and highly detailed, I wouldn’t be surprised if a number of these books were butchered for these prints as they must been very collectable as decorative period pictures.
