The book is bound in original blue cloth with blind stamped detail in black to the front board. It's in good condition but is showing it's age. There is wear and bumping to the corners and the book shows a slight forward lean. The boards show light marking but the spine is more heavily sunned, with some loss to the blue colour. Crushing to the spine ends has caused minor splitting in the cloth. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, there is light age toning throughout with occasional minor marking and foxing. There are a few cracks to the gutter but the pages remain tightly bound. There are ten plates in total, with one used for the frontispiece and the other nine gathered at the end of the book. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions approximately 19cm x 13.3`cm x 2.3cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe books 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 biodegradable 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":57238096347509,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0539\/9271\/8525\/files\/456F87EF-2906-45D9-B14D-9ACA051D037C.jpg?v=1780222267","url":"https:\/\/thevintagebookworm.co.uk\/products\/1905-the-professor-by-charlotte-bronte-edwardian-illustrated-book-copy","provider":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
