1888 SALESMAN SAMPLE Broken Fetters Alcohol Intoxication Book Morris illustrated
For Sale: Broken Fetters: The Light of Ages on Intoxication - Charles Morris - 1888 - Salesman Sample This is an antique salesman's sample book. The book is about the history of alcohol and drunkenness. This sample has only select pages from the full book, and the selection includes many wonderful illustrations as can be seen in the photo gallery. (Pages are in order, but it skips ahead: for instance there is page 417 then the next page you see is 424.) At the back of the book there is an advertisement page with prices for the different book editions. This is followed by several blank pages for people who sign up to buy from the salesman - see photo #9. The covers for the different book editions are pasted inside the sample for customers to view: there is a black spine pasted inside the front, and there is a gold spine/cover pasted inside the back (the gold is photo #1/2).See expanded photo gallery here: https://postimg.cc/gallery/JLyQJ9T Cover has scuffs and wear and there is damage on the spine (photo #5) There is foxing and smudges on many of the pages. A few pages have edge rips - see last 2 photos. Binding appears fine. I do my best to identify any flaws and describe book condition accurately.
