Quarto, 10 3/4" tall, xxxi + 576 + 22 steel plate illustrations, gilt titles on three-quarter decorative leather over brown cloth, gilt fore-edges. A good hardcover overall (interior very good minus) BUT with back strip missing and covers loose, fore-corner tips worn through to boards; internal binding solid, paper lightly yellowed, steel plate engravings bright, but with light foxing primarily on verso of plates and at some margins, and with previous owner's signature and short inscription with year 1869 penned on flyleaf.

Avenue Victor Hugo Books specialize in first editions of the best in fiction, history, biography, poetry, drama, and essay. Our catalogue features careful, considered assessments of all of our stock. We are not flippers selling books by the pound. Instead, we try to limit our stock to books in a condition we'd be proud to place on our personal bookshelves.
For nearly 30 years, Avenue Victor Hugo Books was a fixture of Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay, at one time holding over a quarter-million magazines and 150,000 used books.
