I received my book order today, sooner than I expected and packaged with the care I have come to know from ABAA book sellers. When you described this book’s condition as Fine, you meant it! I couldn’t find one fault. Thank you.
Just a quick message to let you know that I have received the book last week, 1726, in a French armorial binding. Just beautiful, a great addition to my collection. Thanks again for selling such quality items and hope to trade with you again. Best regards from France
