Moscow 1891. 353 pages, 3 mounted plates. 8to (16x23.5cm), new tan half leather, dark brown spine letters, original paper covers mounted and bound in. Fine.
A note from BCD: There is so much to see for the Moskow visitor in the ancient coin trays at the Pushkin that it is easy to forget to visit the State Historical Museum collection that now incorporates the University collection. Judging from the contents of this book, it would be a grave mistake; viewing and handling some of its great rarities is an opportunity that should not be missed.
