Constitutional Convention Title: JOURNAL OF THE CONVENTION OF VIRGINIA; Held in the City of Richmond on the First Monday in June, in the Year of our Lord One Thousand, Seven Hundred and Eighty-Eight [1788] Publication: Richmond: Thomas W. White, 1827 Description: Quarter Leather. Good binding. Small quarto. 39 pp. Early reprint after the original 1788 edition. Contemporary binding, backed in tan sheep with corners and marble paper over boards. Leather at the front joint is separating, but the board is holding well; spine somewhat worn; contents are clean and the slim textblock is sold. In addition to the list of delegates and daily proceedings, this journal contains the discussion, votes, and printed Constitution as ratified in 1788. According to Swem (no. 7586), 200 copies of the journal was printed by Augustine Davis at the close of the convention in 1788. That edition is extremely rare. Even this 1827 edition is fairly uncommon in the trade. Sabin 100030; Swem 7587.

Absolutely delighted with this! The sellers communication around the true condition of the item was very helpful and honest, with what actually arrived reflecting really well (even better than described). The postage was very reasonable considering travelling from the US to Scotland and it was extremely well packaged and protected, given the fragile nature of the item. Fantastic value and I know the recipient will be delighted with the gift! Thank you.

When opened, the book itself was in incredible condition and matched the description provided. A very professional and satisfying experience.
