    Hello
    I live in England and so does my seller. I found a book printed in 1596 I want to know if it is real.

    The seller states it has been re-backed

    I think it's probably good for the date given, but yes, it does look rebound.

    A first issue, with description, here:

    I found out the book is sold, they did not update the website

    That happens sometimes. I recently bought a print online only to find that it had sold apparently seconds before my purchase and so was not available to me.
