I can find no mention of the Eiffel Tower in this book - it is too old! But
charming - the book seems to think it odd that ladies are allowed into
theatres. Apart from a 1cm chip to the rear endpaper, the book seems
complete and in excellent condition for its age. |

Undated, but the text mentions 1st Sept 1905. The book is in very fine
condition. There are only miniscule marks around the edge, apart from one
discolouration [I don't think it's a stain]. |
