Sobre este artículo

London: Bradbury, Agnew & Co. . A lovely collection of these Sporting novels, 80 hand coloured illustrations (plus a further 4 unlisted but hand coloured title vignettes). Uniform half morocco with patterned cloth boards. Gilt titles and decorations to spine. The bindings are in very good condition, with a little unobtrusive rubbing only. Internally, the books are all in good, clean condition. The hand coloured plates are attractive, with a little intermittent foxing only. A very nice group of Victorian illustrated hunting books. Unsure of edition, but from the titles listed to title pages, it would seem that these are all later editions. Each of the works is complete, with all illustrations as called for: Mr Sponge's Sporting Tour (1853). 13 coloured illustrations. xii, 408. pp.; Handley Cross (1854). 17 coloured illustrations. x, 550. One plate (p 407) has been trimmed so as to be smaller than the page (although still outside the image). Ask Mama (1858). 13 coloured illustrations, xii, 412, pp; Plain or Ringlets (1860). 13 coloured illustrations. x, 406. pp (nb. One of the list of coloured plates is for the title vignette. This is not counted in the other volumes); Mr Romford's Hounds (1865). 24 coloured illustrations. viii, 322. pp; 230 by 150mm (9 by 6 inches). . Une belle collection de ces romans sportifs, 80 illustrations colorées à la main (plus 4 autres vignettes de titre non répertoriées mais colorées à la main). Demi-maroquin uniforme avec planches en tissu à motifs. Titres et décorations dorés au dos. Les reliures sont en très bon état, avec seulement quelques frottements discrets. A l'intérieur, les livres sont tous en bon état et propres. Les planches colorées à la main sont attrayantes, avec seulement quelques rousseurs intermittentes. Un très bel ensemble de livres de chasse illustrés de l'époque victorienne. L'édition est incertaine, mais d'après les titres listés sur les pages de titre, il semblerait qu'il s'agisse d'éditions plus tardives. Chaque ouvrage est complet, avec toutes les illustrations demandées : Mr Sponge's Sporting Tour (1853). 13 illustrations en couleur. xii, 408. pp. ; Handley Cross (1854). 17 illustrations en couleurs. x, 550. Une planche (p 407) a été coupée de façon à être plus petite que la page (tout en restant à l'extérieur de l'image). Ask Mama (1858). 13 illustrations en couleurs, xii, 412, pp ; Plain or Ringlets (1860). 13 illustrations en couleur. x, 406. pp (nb. L'une des planches en couleurs de la liste concerne la vignette de titre. Elle n'est pas comptée dans les autres volumes) ; Mr Romford's Hounds (1865). 24 illustrations en couleurs. viii, 322. pp ; 230 par 150mm
