Handsomely bound in contemporary half calf gilt; marbled paper-covered boards; marbled endpapers. Printed by Richard Taylor, printer to the University of London. Condition: VERY GOOD. Collated complete. Bindings tight and secure. Slight rubbing to the joints and boards. Interiors with some light toning, a few intermittent fox spots, and some small closed tears. Without previous ownership markings. A handsome set. Notes: Webster's Dictionary, which first appeared in America in 1828, has remained the standard dictionary in the United States.
