WEST, John.
The History of Tasmania.
Henry Dowling Launceston 1852 1st edition. Ferguson 18351. 2 volumes. 8vo; viii, 340pp & vi, [2],380pp. Original green blind-stamped cloth, spines dulled, extremities rubbed, a few slight marks but also some spotting/soiling on the lower boards of both volumes. The original binding of this work is often found in a poor state, and here there are two signatures (pp145-74) a bit loose and sitting slightly proud at the fore-edges. An owner's small bookplate on each front paste-down has been placed over an earlier one (also his) which has been a bit untidily removed; his name also on the paste-downs and that of two other owner's on the front free endpapers. A little light spotting early and late on on a few other pages, but generally a good to very good, clean set. Now in mylar dustwrappers. ISBN
