The book itself is undated but I'd estimate it to be late Victorian (circa 1890's). It is bound in original brown cloth over bevelled boards, with blind stamped decoration in black and gilt to the front and spine. All edges gilt. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's in very good condition, with light wear to the corners and minor marking to the back board. The spine is lightly sunned and dulled, with crushing to the spine ends. A couple of page segments stick out from the edge of the text block. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside, a presentation plate has been removed from the front pastedown and the pages show scattered foxing and handling marks throughout. There are cracks to the gutter in places and a few page segments feel loose but are still attached. The book features 100 black and white illustrations by Thomas Dalziel. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll books purchased will be hand wrapped in patterned wallpaper and string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI'm gradually switching over to eco-friendly packaging, including 100% recyclable jiffy bags :)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57732794810741,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0539\/9271\/8525\/files\/IMG_6538.jpg?v=1794049560","url":"https:\/\/thevintagebookworm.co.uk\/products\/the-pilgrims-progress-by-john-bunyan-cloth-bound-late-victorian-illustrated-book","provider":"The Vintage Bookworm UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
