Veit Weber - The Sorcerer - J. Johnson, 1795, First Edition.

London, J. Johnson, 1795. First Edition. First Impression. Hardback. A very good copy. Bound in contemporary full tree calf. Supernatural knowledge. "A man who acquires forbidden knowledge" [Locke, Spectrum]. Boards are quite rubbed, the hinges are fairly tight though the upper hinge is cracked. Edges worn. An ex-library copy with code to lower spine and evidence of a sticker removed from front pastedown. A few areas of foxing, but largely a nice copy. Half-title absent, though not sure if there was one on all copies: an auction record reports one, but Locke's copy in Spectrum notes an absence. Four copies recorded on COPAC. [8820, Hyraxia Books].
