Características físicas e requisitos técnicos
The papers are extremely fragile and some editions are badly torn and folded. Originally stored in a large leather-bound portfolio case (measuring 66 cm x 52 cm) with printed stamp on inside cover: ‘John Chambers Printing Office, Account-Book Paper and Commercial Stationery Warehouse, 4 Abbey Street, Dublin’. Extreme care is required in handling this file.
