hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. Indoor Games and Recreations, Dr. Gordon Stables, G. A. Hutchison (ed.) et al. â" 1st Edition Publication: London, The Religious Tract Society, 1888 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 528. Condition Report: Near Fine. This copy presents exceptionally well, preserved within a protective mylar sleeve that has safeguarded the publisher's original cloth binding. The dark brown cloth remains remarkably fresh, with the ornate gilt, black, red, and green pictorial stamping to the front board and spine remaining striking and unoxidised. The extremities show only the faintest hints of rubbing, defying the typical wear expected of heavily handled nineteenth-century boys' encyclopaedias. The binding is tight and secure, with no evidence of strained hinges. The text block is pleasingly square, and the all-edges gilt remains brilliantly bright and largely unmarred. Internally, the pages are crisp, clean, and completely devoid of the usual foxing, toning, or thumbing, making this a true collector's-grade specimen. Catalogue Note: This is a scarce first edition, forming Volume VIII of the celebrated 'The Boy's Own Bookshelf' series, an imprint developed to supplement the immensely popular Boy's Own Paper. The volume is profusely illustrated throughout with over seven hundred vignette engravings and diagrams detailing various crafts, sports, and models. True first editions of this title in the original pictorial cloth are decidedly uncommon on the open market, and copies surviving in such pristine, unrubbed condition are genuinely rare, as these practical manuals were historically subjected to heavy, enthusiastic use by their young owners. A quintessential Victorian encyclopaedia for youth, Indoor Games and Recreations offers a fascinating window into late nineteenth-century boyhood pastimes. Edited by G. A. Hutchison and featuring contributions from experts like Dr. Gordon Stables and the famous illusionist J. N. Maskelyne, this comprehensive guide covers everything from constructing model steam locomotives and mastering gymnastics with Indian clubs, to the secrets of parlor magic, bookbinding, and model yacht building. Profusely illustrated with over seven hundred engravings, it stands as both an enduring record of Victorian recreational ingenuity and an absolute delight for collectors of historic pastimes and hobbies.
