OLD 1771 DICTIONARY

[hunting for Wheaties]

I have an old 1771 dictionary at least i think and i did some research and it said there was a reproduction in the 1970s i was wondering if any of yall know or could tell if i have the real thing or a reproduced model

It's not a dictionary, it's what we call an "encyclopedia". It looks like a repro because the real thing would be in worse shape. Old leather tends to dry and get crumbly.
