This Eclectic English Classics book is over 100 years old. This volume is Shakespeare's The Comedy of the Merchant of Venice. The book has 110 pages, including the ads for their other books at the back.


This book is very good shape. The corners of the front and back covers show some scuffing, and the back cover has slight damage to the inside of the upper corner. The pages themselves are all present and unmarked. There is slight gouging on the outer edge of the pages when the book is closed, but that damage does not carry over onto the pages themselves. The binding is unbroken.


The only marking on the inside of the book are a couple of names and the number, 10, which I presume was a price. Though these markings were clearly made with a pencil, I have opted not to try to erase them in order to avoid damaging the page.


I am keeping this book in a plastic sleeve for its protection, and it will be shipped that way, as well.


Published by American Book Company. 1893.

I can't believe I have been fortunate enough to come into possession of such an amazing book!


The fact that I love Shakespeare aside, I'm just floored by how well this book has been cared for! It's beautiful!
