Wonderful first edition of Goodspeed's "By Subscription Only" massive edition of the then newest sermons and miscellania of D. L. Moody. This was issued at the absolute height of Moody's influence and I believe was the most substantive volume of his works issued contemporarily with his life.
Moody, Dwight Lyman. New Sermons, Addresses, and Prayers, by Dwight Lyman Moody. Illustrated. Sold Only by Subscription. New York. Henry S. Goodspeed & Co. 1877. First Edition. 604pp.
Available by subscription in various bindings, this was the finest; full pebble morocco with deeply plate-stamped boards and spine. The present has some rubbing, has been lightly repolished and corners reconsolidated. Very solid with some handling to text, but clean and very nicely preserved throughout.
