MILTON, John "Paradise Lost" [John W. Lovell, n.d./c1880] Unique Leather Binding

MILTON, John. Paradise Lost.

New York: John W, Lovell, n.d./c1880. 7.5" x 5.5", 291pp with illustrated frontispiece. Unique leather binding that appears to be potentially half finished with maroon leather, black and brown spine labels (unmarked), and four raised bands. Both front and back cover have sections drawn in ink that would have been destined for additional leather panels. Some rubbing to the edges. Front hinge starting. Good+ and one-of-a-kind.
