2 volume set (complete) in slipcase. Both volumes in matching three quarters leather bindings (green leather with green cloth) by Riviere & Sons. Housed in a green boards slipcase. Books are in very good condition. Spines are faded two tones towards brown (from original green) from exposure to light. First signs of wear to the hinges showing now, but boards are all firmly attached. Top edge gilt. Bindings signed on verso of marbled endpapers. Pages clean and square, binding tight. Wide margins. Both volume have early 20th century bookplates tucked inside the front covers & rectangular smudges on the inside front covers where the paste has dried up and the bookplates have popped off. 572 pages and 623 pages. There are 7 plates in the first volume and 10 in the second (including frontis). A very attractive set of this early translation. The slipcase is the same green as the leather, but it is lightweight cardstock. Please email with questions or to request photos.

We trust them & we hope you will too. If you need tracking, please consider PRIORITY SHIPPING. We ship orders valued at more than $50 in a box, at no additional charge. Priority mailing is for a Flat-Rate envelope, with tracking included. If the book does not fit into a flat rate envelope, we will likely need to request extra shipping costs from you, in order to put it in a box. We only charge the actual amount of shipping, so we hope you'll understand that it's just a matter of getting the book to you without taking a loss on it -- shipping is a service we happily offer without a 'handling' charge.... but we can't afford to charge you less than the cost of the stamps!
