Item description from seller

This set was custom bound near publication by the prestigious Robert Seton Bindery At The Mound, in Edinburgh. Each volume is signed with a bookbinder ticket in the rear of each volume. Gorgeous thistle motif. Floral covers. This was a local prestigious bindery in Edinburgh, at the time of Sir Walter Scott. This set was likely bound between 1833-1854, as Robert Seton died by 1854. Set is complete in 48 volumes, which is standard for this set. Volume 48 contains the Glossary. This set is complete in 48 volumes, with all of Scott's novels. Condition: Generalized shelf abrasions and rubs. Extremities abraded and rubbed. Hinges abraded and rubbed. Leather supple. An extremely attractive set. All hinges strongly attached.

Light toning throughout text-blocks, some sparse instances of age-staining or finger-soiling. Bindings remain intact. Still an extremely attractive First Collected Edition, custom bound in Edinburgh. The Waverley Novels are a long series of novels by Sir Walter Scott(1771â€"1832). For nearly a century, they were among the most popular and widely read novels in Europe. Because Scott did not publicly acknowledge authorship until 1827, the series takes its name from Waverley, the first novel of the series, released in 1814. The later books bore the words "by the author of Waverley" on their title pages. The Tales of my Landlord sub-series was not advertised as "by the author of Waverley" and thus is not always included as part of the Waverley Novels series. The Magnum Opus, a 48-volume set published between 1829 and 1833 by Robert Cadell, based on previous editions, with new introductions.
