1874 Literature, Art and Song by R. Shelton Mackenzie, Antique Book

1874 Literature, Art and Song by R. Shelton Mackenzie, Antique Book, International Publishing Company

A visually stunning 1874 volume filled with poetry, lyrical biography, and richly detailed illustrations. This elegant green and gold hardcover features works by Moore, Mackenzie, Stevenson, and others, with ornate visual embellishments and an embossed Art Nouveau-style design that makes it a true showpiece. Inside you’ll find a trove of American poems, critical essays, and romantic ballads, paired with intricate black-and-white engravings.

Overall fair condition for its age:

• Cover: a bit loose (taped on inside of front cover) with marks and wear at edges and corners (curled)
• Spine: marks and wear at ends
• Pages: overall good condition with a few age marks; may have a couple folded corners and small tears
• Edges: age marks and darkening

Please see all pictures as well to help determine condition.

I have hundreds of antique and vintage books.

Thanks for looking!
