Description

5 volumes. First edition. With a profusion of very fine full-page steel-engraved plates and wood-engraved illustrations throughout the text. Large 4to, contemporary three-quarter red calf over moire cloth boards very richly decorated in gilt in panel designs within compartments of the spines, raised bands decorated with gilt rolls, black morocco lettering labels gilt decorated. A fine set with a bit of light shelf wear to the extremities, internally quite, fresh, crisp and clean, with a touch of foxing to a few of the prelims and occasionally to tissue guards. Volume 5 mellowed on the spine.
