Sobre este artículo
NY: D Appleton and Co., 1875-79. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good. Three volume set bound in publisher's three quarter black morocco leather over brown cloth, gilt decorative cover lettering, slightly raised spine bands with gilt lettering, compartments ruled in gilt and black, all edges gilt, marbled endpapers, 488 + 460 + 491 pages. With around three hundred engravings per volume, plus accompanying text, this Victorian era set provided those at home to view sights they had never seen before, or perhaps provided a preview to a European trip in the Grand Tour tradition. All volumes are firmly bound. Pages are generally bright with scattered spots to the endpapers and the odd spot throughout. NOTE: There is a mild musty odor to the volumes, but no mildew or dampness and the pages are crisp and bright. Record # 358223
