First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. With engravings and six monthly fashion plates, all hand-colored by the publisher (illustrator). 1st Edition. A handsome "very good" tall octavo of 296 pp. with six monthly fashion plates hand-colored by the publisher, appears to be bound in black leather with blind-stamped foliate devices to corners and thin gilt rules around the edges of both boards and some modest rub to corners, with lovely marbled endpapers. COULD be the original binding but certainly 19th century. While the preliminaries and the tissues guarding the plates (the fashion-plates being hand-colored as issued) show some browning, the text pages themselves are unusually clean, showing a few scattered brown spots to pp. 190-205 only. ("Rue Morgue" occupies pp. 166-179, in fairly small type with no illustrations.) Small binder's label of B.S. Merrell, 100 Genesee Street (presumably Banajah Merrell, son of Andrew Merrell, who was listed as a bookbinder in the first directory of the (then) village of Utica, 1817) to top of green-marbled front pastedown.) Also includes Poe's shorter stories "Descent Into the Maelstrom" and "The Island of the Fay." The 1932 Robert Florey film of "Rue Morgue" created a leading role for mad scientist Bela Lugosi. A 1986-made-for-TV feature-length version starred George C. Scott, Rebecca De Mornay, Val KIlmer, and Ian McShane. This six-month bound volume from 1841 now reduced from $7,000.

Condition: Near Fine. Thirty-seven black and white illustrations by Gordon Browne and C. E. Brock with five original colored plates. (illustrator). New Edition. xxii, 467, [5 ads.]. 7.5" x 5" PLAYING WITH PREPOSTEROUS PROPORTIONS Lemuel Gulliver, finding himself a man of preposterous proportions in Jonathan Swift's beloved Gulliver's Travels [1726], provided an artistic playground for English children's book illustrators, Gordon Browne and C. E. Brock. Compiling the best illustrations from their oeuvres, A. L. Burt Company's New Edition features Gulliver flocked by ankle-height Lilliputians, whimsically bright on this copy's illustrated cloth binding, and dwarfed by a bespectacled giant in one of the five full color illustrations. This early twentieth-century copy omits "certain coarse passages which would offend the modern taste," wonderfully capturing the neutering of Swift's tale from a scathing political satire to a classic children's novel. Lightly worn corners and tips, slightly toned and rubbed spine, several pen underlines and marginalia pp. 77-80, still near fine. Publisher's full mustard yellow cloth, illustratively stamped in black, grey, and orange.
