[QUOTE="Mattiques, post: 167540, member: 1282"]Thanks for that. I've added a few more photos that could help. I've noticed the signature doesn't seem to match the stamp that's on the title page. The stamp is from Dr Campbell, not sure whos the signature is or why they would sign a book? With the binding is there anyway you can work out its age, of its not original? Or could it be that original volumes have been bound together by someone at some point? I've noticed Dickens work can come in sections or volumes and can then be bound together to make a book. This one has 3 volumes in one I guess. Master clock maker, the old curiosity shop and Barnaby Rudge. Thanks again![/QUOTE]
