Thanks! I just emailed my friend and former colleague and got an out-of-office email that she's on vacation until next week...just giving you the heads up that I might not hear back for a bit.

That’s fine
Good morning, Carla,
My former colleague is back from vacation and has gotten back to me:
"The publisher I’m 90% sure was specifically a reprint publisher who deliberately didn't date their books, but it's probably late 19th or early 20th Century."
I've finished the appraisal on this book; thank you again for using Mearto. Please let me know if you have questions or other items to appraise.
Have a great day,
Delia
Yea Delia that is fine!
