Fancy Dresses Described, Or What to Wear at Fancy Balls

[1882].  Third, “and greatly enlarged edition, with additional coloured illustrations”.  vi, 168, [2 ads]pp, with sixteen stunning colour plate illustrations and further half tone plates.  In black cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering front and spine.  8vo.  Cloth heavily worn, rubbed on edges and joints, rounded on corners and spine ends, a few marks.  Front hinge cracked. Crude repair between pp64-65.  Several gutters cracking, resulting in loosening of central signatures.  Some spotting and toning throughout (not affecting colour plates).  A charming volume with dramatic illustrations, for all its faults.
