Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy; M. Bartholomew (Trans. ) The Music to Racine's Athalie, with an English Adaptation of the Lyrics: Op. 74; Posthumous Work, No. 2
Boston Oliver Ditson & Co. 1868 Hardcover Good+
Hardcover with cloth spine and paper-covered boards. The piano vocal score with lyrics in ENGLISH. No date, but inside back cover advertises the Golden Robin by W. O. Perkins as "the latest and most popular juvenile book," which was published in 1868, establishing that year as the "terminus a quo," so we'll go with that as a projected date. It could be 1869 or 1870 equally well. WorldCat locates only 3 copies of this particular edition and suggests a date in the 1920s, bujt the printing style and the quality of the paper argue for a much earlier date. This copy has a few stray pencil marks. Rag content paper is bright with the predictable foxing, paper covered boards worn along edges, fraying to spine ends, some staining to front cover. A solid copy given its age, but strictly graded at G+. ; 112 pages
