A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Includes the first printing of all three parts of Edgar Allan Poe s short story, "The Mystery of Marie Roget," which is based on the actual murder of Mary Cecilia Rogers. Both volumes are bound together in three-quarter dark brown leather with brown patterned cloth covered boards. Black leather labels to spine with title and volume numbers in gilt. Gilt devices and raised bands to spine. Rubbing to covers and hinges and wear to corners. With numerous full-page steel engravings including several fashion plates. Offsetting from several plates and spots of foxing throughout, but clean and bright overall. Creasing to some pages. Volume XVIII lacks 3 of 19 plates (Abraham and Isaac, The Maid of Narni, and Embroidery) and Volume XIX lacks 2 of 18 plates (Summer Fashions and October Fashions). An attractive book despite noted condition issues. Volume XVIII is 308 pages; Volume XIX is 307 pages. PER/010517.
