Hardcover. Condition: Very good -. Fourth octavo edition. Octavo, 4 parts in 2 volumes. Though a stated "Second Edition," which comports with Teerink's second edition, this is understood to be the fourth octavo edition, with 24 leaves of verses preceding the first Part, understood to have been authored by Alexander Pope. Overall about very good in contemporary brown calf, with gilt borders and spines. Marbled endpapers and edges (though the marbling to the edges is almost entirely faded away). Spines heavily faded, with some of the leather dried out, but there are visible remnants of an armorial design on the spine, which very likely corresponds to the armorial bookplate on the front paste-down of each volume (that of "Courtown"). Corners slightly worn. Some outer joints tender, even almost cracked, but holding strong. Externally a somewhat worn, but apparently unrestored example, and uncommon thus. Frontispiece in second state (as called for here), and all other plates are present. Some mild and sporadic internal foxing, and a few very old, faint stains. Mild insect damage to the margins of Part IV, affecting perhaps a dozen pages, not approaching the text, and not visible externally. Altogether a handsome set in original, unrestored condition. This instant classic, having been for over two centuries an essential volume in great book collections (even in its later early editions), is often found with varying degrees of restoration, which this set has been graciously spared. Housed attractively in a custom-made red cloth clamshell box with felt lining and red morocco spine label. Given this book's labyrinthine bibliographical history, please contact us directly with any specific questions. Seller Inventory # 3421
