| Description |
| 1830s
STUDENT SURVEYOR'S CIPHER BOOK THREE-DAY RETURN PRIVILEGE ON ANYTHING NOT AS DESCRIBED! Done about 1820-40, this
manuscript book is what was likely the equivalent to a modern day master's
thesis. It has 88 pages, a few blank. The two photos show pages that have
illustrations combined with text. It is very well written and most legible
and unusual for its use of red ink. It is stuffed with geometric drawings
and figures and mathematical musings. The paper is substantial and thick,
bound by the awl-and-thread method. Overall it is a very nice example of
an item that was more often done by apprentice sailors to show their
navigating skills. Have never seen one related to surveying before. Well
preserved and most presentable. Now for the bad part. The first four and
last four pages are missing, so we'll never know the author of this little
masterpiece, if it was ever identified at all. Buyer to pay actual
shipping//insurance/delivery confirmation. Please allow time for personal
check to clear or send m.o. for quick shipping.
