Original plain red paper spines with plain grey paper over boards; most of printed spine label remains on vol. 2. Undated publisher's advertisements on final unpaginated pages of vol. 3.

Although unattributed here, this charming caution may have been written by the owner, John Brent (see the Journal of the Ex Libris Society, 1904, 13:31). In Very Good Condition: most of paper over spine of vols. 1 and 3 lacking; vol.2 2 lacking paper at tail of spine; very occasional light foxing; otherwise clean.](/classic/images/items/80x160/002531.jpg "St. Ronan's Well by the author of "Waverley, Quentin Durward" &c.
