Description

2 volumes. New Edition. The FIRST EDITION of SONNETS FROM THE PORTUGUESE. 8vo, handsomely bound in contemporary polished calf, the spines with raised bands gilt tooled, the compartments of the spines with richly gilt panels incorporating floral tools at their centers, two compartments with contrasting brown and maroon lettering labels gilt, board edges gilt tooled, tunovers fully roll tooled in gilt, marbled endleaves, all edges gilt. xii, 362, [1];viii, 480 pp. A handsome and pleasing and honest set in rare period binding, showing the small blind stamp to the verso of the front marbled free-fly of each volume, by Simms & Dinham Booksellers who were active in Manchester, England during the 1840's and 1850's. The calf bindings strong and very well preserved, slight rubbing to the extremities, the spines with light rubbing to the gilt from handling, one label slightly chipped, the other a touch rubbed at the base. The books are clean throughout with none of the foxing that is often present.
