Description: Offered is the vintage book "Queen Victoria", written by Lytton Strachey and published by Blue Ribbon Books in New York. This biography of Britain's long-reigning queen is a stated 21st printing of the first edition, from January, 1931, only ten years after the first printing. There are a couple of full-page black and white illustrations. The original dust jacket is included. The book is approx. 8 3/8" x 6" and contains 434 pages, including the index. It is in good condition. The blue hard cover has only light wear, with some light surface blotchiness. The gold words on the spine are still partially shiny. There is no cracking inside either the front or the back cover. The white endpapers have partially browned and the original owner has written his name, the year 1931 and another number inside the front cover. I see no missing or torn pages and all are well-attached to the binding. They have browned slightly and there is occasional light foxing. I see no writing in the book other than that already mentioned. The dust jacket has no large tears but does have numerous short edge tears along the top and bottom edges, with a few small bits missing. It has browned slightly. I have a lot of experience with vintage and antique books but am not an expert so please let me know if my description is missing information and you have additional questions. I will do my best to answer them! Please take a moment to look at some of the other items in my eBay store!
