Antique, used condition. Original brown cloth binding shows shelf wear, rubbing at the spine ends, and bumped corners. Inner pages have light toning and occasional small tears at the edges, typical for paper of this age. The publisher's advertisement leaf is present but shows some wear (see photos). Tight binding, complete text. A desirable 1858 edition of Longfellow's famous poem. This copy is particularly interesting because it retains the original publisher's advertisement slip from Ticknor & Fields. A true piece of American literary history, perfect for collectors of 19th-century first editions.
