“The World’s Famous Queens” Book Victorian 19th Century Floral Binding

This beautiful antique edition of The World’s Famous Queens was published by Walter Scott Publishing Company. The book itself is undated but there is a written inscription inside dated 1895. So the book is from the late Victorian period. The book is bound in red cloth with stunning floral decoration and gilt detail to the front board and spine. All edges are gilt. It’s in very good condition, with just light shelf wear to the board edges and minor soiling and marking to the boards. The spine is faintly sunned and there is crushing to the spine ends. There is minor marking to the text block edges.
