Description:
London: Printed for J. Walker, 1788. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. First Edition. 12mo. A very good four volume set in contemporary, full tree calf binding with double lettering pieces in red and green. Complete pp. [iii]-vii, [1] 222; [2], 206; [2], 238 & [2], 198. No half-titles which may or may not be wanting, but the pagination for the prelims to vol. I might suggest that one is required? Very good bindings with a little rubbing, a couple of volumes slightly chipped to the head/tail of the spines, corners lightly bruised. Contents clean and tight, manuscript (Greek?) initials to title pages dated 1788 otherwise unmarked, no foxing, paper crisp. A very good set. A Rare Eighteenth Century Novel. We have managed to located just one other copy at auction in the last thirty years and that at Sotheby's sale of July 21, 1993, where it made £1,000 on the hammer, though seemingly not such a nice copy. Referenced by: ESTC T068744.

- Hardcover

Published by William Heinimann, London; 1907. 4to. This exceptional book is a Deluxe LImited Edition (hand numbered 261/1130) illustrated by Arthur Rackham, and the First Edition with these illustrations. Unusually for him, Arthur Rackham did not sign any of the Alice in Wonderland limited editions as he was out of the country at the time of their preparation. There are 13 tipped-in colour plates, and all are present and in Fine condition, each with it's own captioned tissue guard. This beautiful book is square and tightly bound and is in Near FIne condition. There is some minor bumping to the spine ends and corners and some mild rubbing to the boards, with slight mark to the top front edge and a couple to the rear. There also appears to be a small ink line to the rear board, otherwise they are clean and still bright, bound in the publisher's original white cloth boards with the lovely gold gilt detailing and lettering to the front and spine. Internally, there is toning to both free endpapers, but apart from this there are only a few pages that have any spotting or signs of ageing and the pages are amazingly clear and bright for a book of this age. Overall this is an exceptional book in beautiful condition, rarely found these days, and would make the perfect gift or the ideal addition to any literary or Rackham book collection. Please do contact us if you have any queries regarding this stunning book.

Description:
This is a complete 19 Volume set of "HOUSEHOLD WORDS" - A Weekly Journal by Charles Dickens. The volumes span the years 1850 (Volume I) to 1859 (Volume XIX). The significance of this set is that Volume IX contains the 1st appearance of the Dickens classic "HARD TIMES" (please see photos). "Hard Times was first published serially in "Household Words" in the April 1, 1854 issue (volume IX), followed shortly thereafter by the 1st edition in book form in the same year. Seldom found complete in 19 Volumes."Household Words" was an English weekly magazine edited by Charles Dickens and was published every Saturday from March 1850 to May 1859. This set contains 19 hardcover volumes which contain the complete run of individual issues. To boost slumping sales, Dickens serialized his classic novel "Hard Times" in weekly parts between April 1st and August 12th 1854. It had the desired effect, more than doubling the journal's circulation and encouraging Dickens, who remarked that he was "three parts mad, and the…

New York: George Routledge & Sons, 1871. First American "copyright" edition. Small octavo 6 15/16 x 4 7/8 inches; 175 x 125 mm). viii, 378, [2, blank] pp. Seventy-six wood-engraved text illustrations after Arthur Hughes. This edition pre-dates that recorded by Sadleir as the first American edition and is almost certainly one of a few copies printed in England at the same time as the first English edition and sent over to the United States to secure American copyrights. The title-page has been re-set to include the American imprint and date, along with the list of other titles by MacDonald, but without mention of the illustrations, as in Sadleir's first American edition. The pagination matches that of Sadleir's American edition (undated, though he cites a presentation copy inscribed 1873), with the initial blank here wrongly bound in at the end. Original publisher's variant burgundy pebble-grained cloth. Front cover and spine lettered and stamped in black and gilt according to the primary stamping…

Description:
New York: G.P. Putnam's Sons / The Knickerbocker Press, 1927. Half-Leather. Very Good/No Jacket. Corners a bit rubbed, boards faintly soiled, ink date and owner bookplate of Robert N. Cherry on front flyleaf. 1927 Half-Leather. iv, 325 pp. 8vo. No binder's ticket, but appears to be a contemporary custom rebinding: blue leather spine and corners over blue cloth, gilt titles and rules, top edge gilt, new end sheets. "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is the traditional name for the unfinished record of his own life written by Benjamin Franklin from 1771 to 1790; however, Franklin himself appears to have called the work his Memoirs. Although it had a tortuous publication history after Franklin's death, this work has become one of the most famous and influential examples of an autobiography ever written. Franklin's account of his life is divided into four parts, reflecting the different periods at which he wrote them.
