The Morals of Marcus Ordeyne by William J. Locke 1906 HC

This hardcover book, 'The Morals of Marcus Ordeyne' by William J. Locke, was published by Grosset & Dunlap in 1906. It's a unique piece with an unstated edition. While the book is in acceptable condition, it shows some signs of age. There's rubbing and edge - wear on the cover and spine, and the fabric of the spine and back cover has some soiling. The corners are rounded and lightly scuffed from shelf wear. The front cover has some ink writing over the title, a front endpaper seems to have been removed, and there's a previous owner's name in ink on the remaining front endpaper. Also, there's some ink soiling on the back pastedown that has bled to adjacent pages.

To use this book, simply open it and start reading to enjoy the story. When handling, make sure your hands are clean to avoid adding more soiling. It's best to place it on a flat surface to prevent further edge - wear. Since it's an old book, avoid bending the pages too forcefully to prevent tearing. When storing, keep it in a dry and cool place to slow down the aging process. If you notice any loose pages, you can use archival - quality glue to gently re - attach them.
