    Description

    Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding, Very Scarce

    An incredibly scarce architectural title, in original cloth binding, with gilt lettering to front board and spine.

    Written by a collective of architects and design professionals, who include William Davis Haskoll, who published several similar titles.

    This work also utilises 'numerous experiments' by influential British engineer George Rennie, whose firm built the engines for the Archimedes - which made history when it became the first propellor-driven steamship in 1839.
     
    This title includes 32 pages of Lockwood & Co. publisher's catalogue to the rear of the book.

    Condition

    Bound in original brown cloth. Externally, smart. Book has a backwards lean. The odd marks to boards. Head and tail knocked. Closed tear to rear joint. Small loss of cloth to head. Marks to paste downs. Internally, firmly bound, with occasional strain. Pages generally bright and clean, with the infrequent spot. Age toning to title page. Light spotting to text block edges.

    Very Good
