    Description

    Important Work on Idaho

First edition. Octavo. [1-4], [5]-52, 53-64 advertisements. Map. Illustrated, some hand-colored. Publisher's printed wrappers. Front wrapper partially detached; rear wrapper lacking; front wrapper with chips and small areas of loss at the edges; contemporary owner's signature at the top of the front wrapper; contents with light to occasionally moderate scattered foxing, else a very good copy. Sold in a custom case.

    "Undoubtedly the original pamphlet was more an advertising vehicle than a bona fide guidebook, and there may be more variants issued by Campbell or others." (Wagner-Camp).

    This was my first time dealing with an auction house, and I am 100% completely impressed with Heritage. There is not an aspect of this process that I have a critique for.
