Libro Prima edizione
Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. By the Author (illustratore). 1st Edition. "The Sketch Book of Henry Alken Engraved by Himself" London 1826. Forty two Hand coloured plates.Original half calf oblong binding with leather title label. Could be a reprint of the 1820 edition. The plates are dated 1820. For whatever reason Alken/ McLean decided to rename it "The Sketchbook of Henry Alken" as opposed to earlier editions they named "Scraps from the Sketch-Book of Henry Alken" However, something of a curiosity. The binding is tight.There is light foxing and soiling without affecting the plates.There are some tissue guards present. The plates are exceptionally bright. Contact seller in relation to postage.
