The Spectator. With Sketches of the Lives of the Authors. In Eight Volumes. Volume 3

1804, First Edition. Edinburgh : Alex. Lawrie and Co. Good copy in contemporary full tree calf over boards, now slightly scuffed. Corners bumped, with panel edges slightly rubbed; gilt-blocked spine more heavily rubbed, with the endbands and joints showing particular wear. Prelims and rear blanks show faint damp-stains to the margins; the text block remains tight and strong overall, showing only the expected faint foxing or offsetting of age. A well-preserved example overall. Item #469370
