London:: John W. Parker, 1859., 1859. 8vo. viii, [2], 614 pp. Foxing. Original brown morocco, dual gilt-rules, raised bands, gilt-stamped spine, brick-red cloth sides, a.e.g., dark green endsheets. Very good. With a panoramic fore-edge painting found along the three edges, being British golfing scenes. There is a set of photographs of the painting included, probably taken by the former owner, but showing on the back sides that the photographic paper is KODAK paper and a sponsor of the Olympic Games, which Kodak was famously a sponsor from 1896 till 2008, thus the paintings are pre-2008.
