We don't recall ever seeing this specific edition of Bunyan's Pilgrim before. The 1875 facsimile of the 1678 1st edition of this immortal classic we do handle on occasion. To our recollection though, we have never seen an another example of the present wide margin edition. Presumably printed in a very limited quantity, perhaps for a small number of scholars, constructed with the wide margins for academic marginalia, etc.
