Just One of Several Rare, Vintage Books We're Offering Here Right Now!
The Last of the Mohicans
by J. Fenimore Cooper
Bid now for yet another piece of historic literature! The volume your winning bid will get you is a 150 year-old classic! Illustrated with line drawings throughout.
This is stated to be The People's Edition by the publisher. This is from the publisher's series of other P.E. titles at the time.
Condition
Sadly, the worst part of this historic collectible is that the cover has come loose from the interior. The interior pages are completely intact and square and connected together well.
The pages show some age tanning but no problems as every word is clear and crisp. Other than the loose boards, no pages are torn or damaged.
Inside the front cover is a book plate. Also, some large, flowing pencil marks were made inside the front cover, perhaps someone's name, at some point along the way.
On the boards at the spine, you can see through 3 worn-down openings in the spine to the inside page spine. Wear appears at the spine's ends as light fraying.
The front cover is amazing and is about as nice as whenthis rolled off the press. The reddish coloring is barely faded and the black design and letting is crisp and clear. The PEOPLE'S EDITION statement by the publisher in the center of the front cover is completely clear. The back cover board shows a couple of stains. No odors are present and no mildew has affected this volume.

Payment Policies
- eBay now ONLY allows for PayPal payment for items such as this one.
- We do not think it's fair to other bidders to end an auction early unless there is an error or omission in the listing.
Shipping Policies and International Bidding
- Save Postal Costs when you win more than one item. See our current eBay Auction Catalog Here.
- ***We refuse to profit from shipping! It's high enough as is. Once we cover your package and mailing costs, we refuse to add one cent more to your cost!***
- We often sell books and if you're ordering single books that require no larger boxing, you do not have to worry about bumps in the mail! We mail every single book in new cardboard boxing for heavy-duty protection (unless the size is awkward and using our book mailers would not adequately protect your book in transit - then we may opt to re-use a like-new, CLEAN and sturdy box.)
- We frequently ship within 24 hours of receiving proper payment!
-
International Bidders: We can not mark customs forms as "gift" for this or any other sale and we must write an accurate declaration of value. International Bidders Please Note: If this item weighs more than 4 pounds, we are forced by our postal system to ship via Priority Mail because we are not allowed to ship via Economy Surface anymore and the slightly less costly First Class Airmail is only available for items 4 pounds and under. We do NOT like this expensive postage and if you know of a less costly way to get your item to you we are open to suggestions.
-
International Buyers, Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges (typically collected upon delivery or pickup) are the buyer's responsibility and are not included in the item price or shipping charges. Please check with your country's customs office prior to bidding to determine what these additional costs will be.
-
Many of our buyers have been surprised to find a refund from us! If shipping is much less than estimated, we'll immediately refund your over-payment.
-
If you win other auctions from our Auction Catalog Here we will greatly reduce combined shipping charges!
