Sobre este artículo
FIRST Stockdale edition, first issue with the long "s" throughout; 2 volumes, large 8vo (270 x 165mm). VERY SCARCE Large Paper Copy. 2 Engraved title-pages and 110 plates (All 112 plates are in fabulous, unmarked condition; there is no foxing and the volumes are internally clean). Some leaves are slightly browned. Leather boards are slightly worn and previous owner's bookplates are present. Both volumes are bound in early (perhaps original) full leather bindings with faded gold lettering and decoration on the spines, gold borders on the boards.
Page 198 of Vol I is misprinted as 891; the text is by Samuel Croxall. A very good, collector's copy of the richly illustrated, first edition of the famous Stockdale's Aesop.
