#179088Condition
Expected age wear to plates and pages with toning, stains, tears/losses (most to peripheries of pages). "Sketches in Egypt" has text but plates are missing. "Musee Blacas: Monumens Grecs, Etrusques et Romains Vases Peints" (1829) has 96 pages. Binding is damaged. Definitely time-worn but there are some fabulous treasures here as well!
