Ahiman Rezon de la Franc-maçonnerie de Philadelphie 1ère édition reliée 1825 RARE

  
Volume in poor condition as seen. Previous owner in the 1800s glued newspaper clippings into first chapter of volume and also cut out about 10-20 pages. All affected pages are prior to page 70 and deal with the general history of Free Masons.

The more important second section, and bulk of the book (having to do with the rules and regulations) do not appear to have news clippings or missing pages. So good and bad - unimportant section for Masons is ruined - though it has neat old news clippings - while important rules section is fine.

Aside from that, book binding is sound and tight in original leather covers. Pages are a bit warped in areas, brittle and foxed to various degrees.

Not a pretty copy but sound and very scarce in ANY condition! An important volume in Free Masonry. Only; Internationale through the eIS program.
