Description :

Patriotic tribute volume King Albert’s Book, created as an international homage to King Albert and the Belgian people. Issued collaboratively by The Daily Telegraph, The Daily Sketch, The Glasgow Herald, and Hodder & Stoughton. Features contributions from notable figures worldwide, produced in support of Belgium during the First World War. Classic clothbound hardcover with period typography and emblematic title‑page design, reflecting early‑20th‑century commemorative publishing.

Clothbound hardcover book titled 'King Albert's Book' features a green royal monogram crest and decorative border on an off-white linen cover. The classical early 20th-century design conveys regal refinement. Visible light foxing and faint staining on the endpapers and cover edges reveal authentic age. The embossed green lettering and sturdy binding remain appealing against the neutral cloth backdrop.
