A S Buxton, 1932. 4to in buff card covers, 98pp, 18 ills inc several in
colour. A reminder of life around the time of 1823 Manfield Improvement Act. This copy has
several faults, most noticeably the broken binding at p14 and the cracked binding at p46
& p78. The card covers are very grubby and worn, the top & tail of the spine
particularly so. The contents are nice and clean, though. Scarce. (ref 7396) £16.00
