Sobre este item
London: John Murray, 1853. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine. Octavo, 3 volumes. A crisp, clean set, bound handsomely in 3/4 navy crushed morocco and blue cloth. Marbled endpapers, gilt devices to spine, and gilt top edges. Handsome bookplate of the Earl of Cromer to the front paste-downs (each of which appear to conceal an earlier bookplate from the eponymous Earl). Occasional stray foxing marks, but really a fresh, handsome set internally, with one 3-inch tear to the very large folding map of St. Helena in volume I. Slight rubbing to extremities, occasional pencil notations to blank prelims, but a very nice set overall; near fine.

We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
