The book is undated but I'd estimate it to be circa 1880's\/1890's. It's bound in mustard yellow cloth with black decoration and gilt blind stamped to the front and spine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e***At the time of listing, I can't find any other copies of this book for sale.***\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's in very good condition, with the main flaw being two circular stains to the front board. The corners show light wear and there is some bleached discolouration to the back and spine. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, there are two pencilled names - one on the front pastedown and front free endpaper. The pages are clean and bright with minimal toning and wear. There are black and white illustrations within the text. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions approximately 18.7cm x 12.5cm x 1.7cm.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book will arrive hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI use a range of eco friendly, 100% recyclable jiffy bags and boxes, and whenever possible I use brown paper tape. The green bubble wrap is oxo-degradable and the clear bubble wrap is 100% recyclable. I also reuse boxes when I feel it's appropriate (if the boxes are sturdy enough).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57658673758581,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0539\/9271\/8525\/files\/F6FB236C-3C5C-4904-9DDF-10C987443153.jpg?v=1792167647","url":"https:\/\/thevintagebookworm.co.uk\/products\/1895-beetons-all-about-gardening-a-dictionary-of-garden-work-500-illustrations-copy","provider":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
