Descripción:
Garden City, NY: Doubleday, Doran & Company, 1930. Limited edition signed by Arthur Conan Doyle on the limitation at the front of the first volume, copy #181 of 760 thus. Complete in 24 volumes. Bound in publisher's brown boards lettered in gilt with a cream colored cloth backstrip, paper title labels, top edges gilt. Fine, internally bright and clean, a little of the typical offsetting to spine cloth, in remarkable examples of the mostly plain dust jackets, nearly all of which are Fine. A few have minor shelf wear; vol. VII alone is of lesser condition, worn head, two small stains, and a few repairs to verso. The condition of this set-- especially its fragile dust jackets-- is really something else. One would be very hard pressed to find a better surviving example. The complete fictional works of British writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, famous for creating Sherlock Holmes, but also a writer in numerous genres like science fiction, supernatural fiction, and fantasy.
