Transactions Kansas Academy of Science XIII 1893 Antique HC

This item is a remarkable antique book, 'Transactions of Kansas Academy of Science Vol. XIII'. Published by Hamilton Printing Company in 1893, the author and edition are unstated. The book is in acceptable condition. The covers have moderate soiling, and there's tarnishing and foxing along the fore edge of the text block. The pages have yellowed heavily with age, are fragile, and a few are torn, but readability remains unaffected. There's minor soiling throughout the pages, and the binding is loosened.

This antique book is more of a collector's item or for those interested in historical documents. When handling it, be gentle due to the fragile pages. Avoid exposing it to direct sunlight or high humidity as these can further damage the paper and binding. If you need to move the book, hold it firmly at the spine to prevent more pages from tearing. You can display it in a cool, dry place to show off its historical charm. But remember, because of its age and condition, it's not meant for heavy - use reading.
