Description: This Victorian book, "BOOK OF GEMS," is a true gem for collectors and lovers of poetry and art. Edited by S C Hall and published by Saunders & Otley in 1836, this book features various artists as illustrators and is bound in leather. This is a lovely item. It has a label on the inside of the front cover with the name of Mr J Jordan. A personalised printed inscription to a Miss Eliza Bickerton commemorating the coronation of Queen Victoria on June 28th 1838. It also has a dedication to Sir Robert Peel. The condition is good. There is some foxing, and the spine and front cover have come away from the text block, but this could be sorted.
