The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam:
Pre-1898 Thomas Y. Crowell & Company Edition
Another weird one! My copy of this edition is in super rough shape. It was from a library. A discard copy. I only know it’s pre-1898 due to the original owner (I presume) writing their name and year into the book.
I’m not quite sure what parts of it are original. There’s some taping done on the side with Rubaiyat scrawled onto it… I’m not that much of an expert to know if it was totally rebound. It’s a mystery!
Update 07/2023: Updated the layout, added pictures.
