Very old copy of The Story of a Round Loaf, with 32 sepia colored plates from drawings by Eugene Froment. The cover has a lovely central gold ornament with the title embossed within it. The cover is damaged along the bottom 2 inches of the spine. Except for modest soiling, the front and back covers are in good condition. The pages are separated from the spine. The title page(s) are missing, but all 32 engravings are there. Many of the pages have spotting. Google has scanned a copy of this book with the same cover and dates it from 1868.
