Sobre este artículo
[ London: Day and Son, 1865 ] First edition thus. The poem was originally published in 1816.. Original polychrome purple cloth decorated in gold, blue, and red. Expertly recased. . Quarto. [20] ff. chromolithograph plates (printed on one side only). Beautifully illuminated by Audsley with decorations by W.R. Tymms. Expertly recased. Slight rubbing to extremities. Faint contemporary ink signature to front flyleaf. A very good, remarkably clean and bright copy. McLean: "In 1865, Day & Son issued an edition of Byron's The Prisoner of Chillon… illuminated by the Audsleys, richly polychromatic, and richly muddled in its mixture of decorative styles, the total effect being most attractive," (Victorian Book Design, p. 133)

Sobre Michael R. Thompson, Booksellers, ABAA/ILAB
Our office is located in Los Angeles on West Third Street, between the Beverly Center and Farmer's Market. Though we gave up an open shop after more than thirty years, we welcome serious customers and dealers. We are normally open from 10 to 6 Monday through Saturday. Since some of our less expensive books are located in a temperature-controlled storage area offsite, you may want to call ahead of time to insure that the book you want to see will be available. We feature a stock strong in literature, history, Western philosophy, women's studies, education, history of science and fine printing and artists' books. We are members of the Antiquarian Booksellers Association of America and the International League of Antiquarian Booksellers. We have books from the 15th to the 20th century in all prices ranges. We do appraisals for income tax and insurance purposes. We purchase individual books and libraries. Proprietor: Carol Sandberg
