The Annals of San Francisco. First Edition. 1855, Both Maps Present, California
This is a rare first edition of “The Annals of San Francisco” by Frank Soule, John H. Gibbon, and James Nisbet. The hardcover book, printed in 1855 by D. Appleton & Company, contains both maps and is in its original condition. The literature topic covers the history of San Francisco and the North American region. The book is a valuable addition to any collection of antiquarian and collectible books. This copy was found in a Midcoast Maine estate. It has several of the front and rear endpaper pages missing as shown in the photos. Both maps are present, however the large fold out map requires restoration and repressing, as it is wrinkled and in 3 pieces. Some foxing and staining present, as well as ghost images of pressed leaves on some pages. This book retains its handsome leather binding which has remained fairly supple, and holds much of its original gilt lettering. Overall a solid copy of a very desired book on early California history.
