Binding Note:Binding: contemporary gold-tooled tree calf. Single fillet border. The flat spine is tooled to six compartments, with the title on a red lettering-piece in thesecond, the volume number on green in the fourth. Marbled endleaves, the edges stained green. Joints a little weak. A brave and accurate imitation of McKenzie's style, but the execution lacks the professional finish. The Stabane provenance indicates that it may be the work of a local binder, possibly the publisher John Bellew.
