About this Item

Rare original 1832-1833 complete 17 volume fine leather binding set of "The Works of Lord Byron: With His Letters and Journals and His Life by Thomas Moore, Esq." The set was originally issued as a 14 volume set, but in 1833 three more volumes were published. The books are overall in very good condition with some minor signs of wear and age. The covers have some mild scuffing and wear with heavy sun discoloration to the spines and some minor cosmetic rubbing and wear along the joints. The bindings are all good and sound. There is a handwritten period name inscription to the front flyleaves of each volume. Each volume is illustrated with a frontispiece and an additional engraved titlepage. The interiors are lightly toned from age but are generally clean with just some occasional light foxing and grubbiness. Along with that there may be the very occasional page with some kind of other minor imperfection, such as a creased page corner, minor stain or marking, tiny chip or tear, etc. Generally though it's a nice set. The books measure approximately 6 3/4 inches by 4 1/2 inches. They take up about 17 inches of shelf space. Please look at all of the photos to further note the condition. *************This is a heavy set which will be expensive to ship outside of the United States and will require additional shipping charges for international shipments and may require additional charges for upgraded domestic shipping to USPS Priority Mail*************.
