About This Item
F. Carr And Co., 1829. Hardcover. Good. Complete set of First Printings of the first publication of the papers of Thomas Jefferson This is an original matched set . It is clear that these books have been together since their publication . . Edited by Jefferson's grandson , Thomas Jefferson Randolph . The textblocks of the four books are in remarkably good condition . All material is present except the large foldout of Jefferson's draft of the Declaration of Independence . There is a ' notice " from the publisher in Volume One stating that the copies of the Declaration did not arrive in time to be shipped with these books . This would seem to indicate that this set of books was one of the first to be shipped . ( I will include a copy of Carr's foldout of draft of the Declaration with these books . ) Each of the books has the name of a previous owner on the second free endpaper . Beautiful marbled endpapers in each book . Some light foxing and damp stains in each book . Full leather bindings . All of the boards are present but detached . Ribbed spine panels are intact but the original graphics are no longer visible . The leather on the boards is in pretty good condition and make an attractive presentation , even though detached . A rare , important set for any collector of Jefferson materials .
