Sobre este item
Paris: Baudry's European Library, 1835; 1833. Half Morocco. Pebbled cloth on boards. . Very Good. Six volume half morocco set. 8vo. 21.5 by 13.5 cm. The Complete Works is comprised of four volumes, and these were issued in 1835; the Life is two volumes, issued in 1833. Nonetheless, the contemporary dark green binding is matching for the six volumes. The Life volumes contain three steel engravings. Each volume containing bookplate, with vignette illustration of geese taking to flight, of Landon K. Thorne Bindings with four raised bands on spine, and somewhat elaborate gilt decoration. Condition: Rubbing by joints generally speaking, with subtle repair in first volume of Life, front joint. Edges with shelfwear, and a few other rubbed areas. Interiors with age toning and scattered light foxing. For the particular paper stock used, it is our sense that the foxing is mild indeed. Overall a handsome set.
