An absolutely charming Victorian Salesman's sample of a classic Moody biography; beautifully preserved in original Victorian cloth with binding alternatives neatly laid to the front and rear pastedown, a superb steel engraving of Moody at the frontis, a partial "sample" text, and pages for taking orders.

Our salesperson was either unmotivated or unsuccessful. Given the superb condition of this particular example, we suspect the former.
