Description

4 volumes. LIMITED First Edition, the MANUSCRIPT EDITION and one of only 1000 hand-numbered copies with a leaf from the original Beveridge manuscript bound in. Illustrated throughout with a profusion of plates in each volume. Tall, royal 8vo, publisher?s original binding for this special issue of half dark blue ribbed cloth with light blue labels gilt ruled and lettered over blue paper-covered boards. xxvi, 297; vi, 310; vi, 361; vi, 381 including index. A fine set well preserved, internally very fine and essentially as pristine with no spotting, toning, or evidence of use, the text-blocks all very fine, the hinges all firm and strong. The paper-covered boards with some very slight toning and a minor bit of rubbing to the corners as is normal, the cloth spines very slightly mellowed and with occasional very small unobtrusive spots from age.
