Privately Printed By The Burton Club, 1900. First Thus. Hardcover. Very Good. 16 volumes, complete as issued. Copy #145 of 950 sets of the Baroda edition. Beautifully bound in heavy green 3/4 morocco over green cloth boards by Stikeman & Co., spines with raised bands and elaborate gilt decoration including four Crescent & Star designs with complex geometric surrounds, covers bordered with a single gilt fillet, top edges gilt, marbled endpapers (spines uniformly faded to a lustrous brown, light rubbing, 4 volumes have nicking to spine tips; Volume I has crack to rear hinge with repair; Volume XVI has a tear to leaf at end (in 'Press Notices'). Still a stunning set with great shelf presence. The 'Baroda Ediition' is an early but undated American issue (date is sometimes given as 1901-02, or 1903); translated, with notes, commentaries, etc., by Richard F. Burton. 16 volumes complete (includes 10 text volumes and 6 supplementary volumes); title on spines: Alf Laylah wa Laylah. Includes b/w & duotone Illustrations (the frontispiece portrait of Burton in Volume I repeats in a hand-colored version). NOTE: the 6th volume of the Supplemental Nights ends with 'Press Notices' so this edition is complete in 16 volumes.
