Daniells Chancery Practice Appraisal

The Practice of The Chancery Division, Volume II (Seventh Edition of Daniell's Chancery Practice), published 1901

This item is a vintage legal textbook, specifically Volume II of "The Practice of The Chancery Division of the High Court of Justice, And on Appeal Therefrom. Being the Seventh Edition of Daniell's Chancery Practice, with References to the Companion Volume of Forms." The book features a soft, light tan or cream-colored paper cover, showing visible signs of age-related discoloration and foxing, typical for a publication of its era. The paper exhibits a slight ripple or buckling, particularly along the spine side, which suggests some moisture exposure or inherent characteristics of the paper and binding at the time of manufacturing. The text on the cover is printed in black ink, utilizing a mix of serif fonts, some of which are ornate, to display the title, edition, authors (Cecil C. M. Dale, Charles W. Greenwood, Sydney E. Williams, Francis A. Stringer), and publishing details. Notably, it states "In Two Volumes, Vol. II." indicating it is part of a larger set. The publisher is identified as "Stevens and Sons, Limited, 119 & 120, Chancery Lane, Law Publishers, London." The publication year is clearly marked as "1901." Despite the visible age, the text on the cover is fully legible, and the overall structural integrity appears to be good, with no obvious tears or major damage to the cover. The visible condition aligns with the 'good condition' assessment, implying that while it shows its age and use, it remains largely intact and functional as a book.
