Sobre este artículo
Each title consists of 2 volumes. No dates but from other copies on the net 1901 -1910. Usually printer is stated on last page : Ballantyne, Hanson & Co in # 1, vol 2 . Hazell, Watson & Viney in all other vol 2 s. Books have very tender spines in maroon pebble leather; corners are much stronger but all are scuffed and have been restored and strengthened. The book blocks are white and clean with no markings nor inscriptions and appear to have not been read. Marbled end papers in Fine condition. Gold lineations on spine and cover; the col lithographs could be a first appearance in Dickens reprints. Vignette in b&w on title pages. All edges seem to have been speckled but so faded they might have been marbled. The spines have not yet been restored and will be in due course, or upon receipt of an order. So there might be a delay in delivery. But this does give an opportunity to re-back some or all, completely with new leather, gilt and raised bands, should you so wish, at a cost to be advised. The price given is for 12 books as above described but complete titles ( i e.2 vols ) are separately saleable In any event please expect extra postage. The
Specifics are -- # 1 : 567pp, : 8 b&w plates and some b&w text illus illus plus 4 col illus in each vol by George Cruikshank. # 2 : 579pp 8 b&w plates in each vol and 5 and 2 col plates by Sibson and Hablot K Browne. # 3: 571pp same illustrators - 10 b&w, 4 col and 6 b&w, 3 col, Note about being available on Subscription only. # 4 648pp 10 b&w , 5 col and 6 b&w , 3 col illus by Hablot K Browne. #5 674pp same illustrator - 8 b&w 5 col, 8 b&w 3 col. # 6 658pp 8 b&w 4 col, 8 b& 4 col illus by Marcus Stone. This book has a postscript Sept 2 , 1865 but I think this has no bearing on the print date.

You will find the LOCATION of our Bookstore on Google. ALL our books are thoroughly cleaned. All books with dust jackets/ wraps are completely covered in 50 or 75 micron High Density PolyEthylene (= "plastic" = archival acetate film), as are books without dust jackets costing more than US$20. Soft-covers and hard-covers without Dj s are covered in adhesive plastic. While we have neither insects nor dampness in our shop, you might find that the total plastic cover keeps both at bay. Covering the whole book means that the common edge-wear described by so many dealers is mostly absent in our books. Any "plastic" is easily removable, it is not adhered to the book nor to the dust jacket. We do not use sellotape nor any other tape which discolours. We restore books where necessary and describe ONLY EXCEPTIONS to a perfect state. Faults in expensive books are described in huge detail. WHEN RESTORED the majority of "faults'' are visible only with great difficulty and certainly NOT in an image. To avoid misleading you we include few images. Please be guided by the very full descriptions. If no faults are described in a cheaper book, please be guided by the Condition. RESTORATION SERVICE. We restore any book younger than 1800 making your grotty, broken old books look like beautifully-cared-for precious old books. DUST JACKETS IN FACSIMILE. We provide colour copies of any DJ in our stock. Please ask for quotes, images & descriptions.
