1898 "Historic Towns of New England" - Lyman P. Powell

This 1898 first edition was published by G.P. Putnam’s Sons (The Knickerbocker Press) and is in near-fine to fine archival quality.

Most 19th-century volumes carry the names of past owners or the spotting that comes with age, but this copy is a startling exception. The front flyleaf and internal pages are completely clean—no signatures, no bookplates, and no inscriptions. It is a true "blank slate" in pristine condition.
