Description







WoW!! **1828 Book On Surveying Instruments**
Another Nice Item from The New Wireless Pioneers!

This is a very early treatise on the theory and practice of surveying. Written by Robert Gibson in 1828, it served as a guide for the pioneering surveyors in the US.

Printed by J. and J. Harper of New York, there are numerous Copper-Plate engravings depicting surveying instruments and methods of laying out a plot of land. There's a total of 14 Folding Plates, although most of Plate VI is torn away and missing.

There is considerable foxing throughout, although it has the original worn leather binding. The first 15 pages are stained along the center margin, see the title page.

Priority Postage in the USA is $4.00+ insurance

Good Luck!!

Details for the seller and high bidder(s):
The seller should contact the winning bidder(s) with information on the total cost, including shipping, and where to send payment. The winning bidder(s) must pay the seller directly for the item(s), and it is the seller's responsibility to fulfill the order when payment terms are met. The binding contract of the auction is between the winning bidder and the seller.

If the seller is unable to establish contact with the high bidder within 3 business days of the end of the auction, he/she may lose the place as winning bidder, and be at risk for receiving negative feedback and/or a Non-Paying Bidder warning, both of which can ultimately lead to suspension from eBay.
