Original quarter leather binding, leather still supple, gilt spine title still fully legible. Lacks rear endpaper. Binding secure. Contents age-toned and moderately foxed. All eight plates called for in the index are present, as is a ninth plate, of the Baggs Hotel, in Utica, NY. Pencil notation on obverse of front endpaper, ‘Capt. Caleb W. Merritt, North Greenwich’, apparently not in his hand, but in that of a descendent.
