A propos de cet article

New York: Virtue & Yorston Publishers, undated but circa 1870. Large Folio, 15"x11 1/4", soft orange wrappers with black imprinting and decorations on the covers, large frontis engraving + paper guard + 32 pp. Good; some spine slit and ends, moderate right-edge tatter at front cover, peripheral stains at engraving not affecting image. See scans. One of 48 separate serialized subscription offerings issued under the title "The Works of Shakspere (sic) Edited by Charles Knight", this entry in the series is All's Well That Ends Well / Act I, Scene I through Act V, Scene III, following a very large engraving, "Autolycus (The Winter's Tale)", executed by C.R. Leslie, A.R.A. Pinx T. and Lumb Stocks R.A., Sculpt., then 5 pp. of introductory information, then the work itself. A scarce form of Knight's editing, and one claimed by the probably-not-unbiased Virtue & Yorston to be "The Best Edition of Shakspere Published" (referring to the entire subscription series of 48 numbers). Please review scans. L-lng2.
