Binding Notes

Brown leather over boards. Both upper and lower boards detached from text block and spine. Spine label in red and gold reading LINN'S SERMONS. Lower board appears mismatched - differs noticeably in width from upper board and the lacing in locations do not match the cords on the spine. Front board was laced in at 2 stations, rather than at all 4.
