Original Description:
Her for your consideration is this two volume set of antique books titled "The Descent of Man" by Charles Darwin (Origin of Species, Selection In Relation To Sex) Evolution 1st edition 1871. This book was obtained from a Northern Virginia estate sale which included an extensive collection (1000+) of antique books. 
On one of the free pages of volume 1, there is a signature of "Merrill E. Gates" dated March, 1871. After some research of this signature I found one matching the si...gnature of Merrill E. Gates who was an educator (1848-1922) who served as president of Rutgers and Amherst. To verify this, Google Merrill E. Gates and click on the second selection (icollector). At the bottom of his photo on this page is his signature. Mouse over it to zoom in.
This book would make a great addition to any collection.  
Condition:Frayed edges on spine & corners of covers on both volumes. Small rip on page 342 of volume 1. Small rip on bottom left quadrant & top right quadrant of volume 2 cover. Total separation of pages at the spine from pages 243 to 262 on volume 2 and partial separation of pages at pages 267 to 286 on volume 2. Some separation of adhesive binding to the four insert pages titled "The Origin Of Species".
I do not claim to be a collector nor do I claim to be professional at grading books, therefore I have given the my best observance of condition.
