To celebrate their 100th anniversary in 1917, the house of Harper & Brothers chose to republish Seneca's Morals—the very first book they ever printed in 1817. This beautiful Centennial Edition was produced in a strictly limited run of only 750 numbered copies, making it a prized find for collectors of fine press and the Harper legacy. Condition & Key Features: Limited Run: This is a verified numbered copy from the original 750-print run. Dust Jacket: Includes the original dust jacket, a rare survival for this 1917 edition. The jacket is in Very Good condition, preserving the book’s historical integrity. Binding: Bound in original hardcovers; tight, square, and clean with minimal shelf wear.
