Description: 1878 Godey's Lady's Book Hand colored Fashion Plates Vol. 96 & 97 In a modern half morocco leather binding The original owner bound this volume together from individual issues. It appears he did not have the May issue so bound it without May. There are 11 single monthly issues bound together, with all 11 folding hand colored fashion plates present in exceptionally well preserved condition. Also bound in are the frontis engravings, craft pages and musical pieces, wood cut fashion illustrations. Title and contents pages for both volumes are bound in at front of the book. The original owner did not bind in the ad pages which usually appear at the end of each volume and were included in pagination. (He instead bound all these ad page together with ad pages from other years into a giant volume of Godey's Magazine ads; eclectic - to be sure). So page numbers are irregular between each issue. A few scattered pages with a superficial stain or mend. In general the contents are exceptionally well preserved anf VG++ thus
