Old edition of The Talisman, Sir Walter Scott's classic tale of King Richard III and the knights of the Third Crusade. This edition has has a heavy art binding cover with a illustration of a knight on horseback and about 12 lovely full color litho plates.

We're not sure for the exact vintage of this edition. There doesn't seem to be a publisher's note or a date. The library card is stamped with a date in "'82" but we doubt that this is as old as is 1882. We're guessing that this edition is from the 1920s through about 1950.

This is an ex-library edition from a high school library and is so marked with stamps, cards etc. It also has wear and some markings to some of the pages. But the illustrations are lovely and would be nice for framing.
