Description:
New York: Thomas Y Crowell & Co., 1892. Finely bound in dark brown crushed morocco, stamped with gilt floral decorations, wide floral gilt turn-ins with complimentary floral end papers, top edge gilt, ribbon marker, the binding unsigned making it likely an example of late 19th c. American fine binding. The Preface by Austin Dobson, which first appeared in the "English Illustrated Magazine" for October 1890, traces the history of illustrated editions of The Vicar, although this edition makes no mention of its illustrators. The illustrations are, however, signed in the images and are mainly dated '89 and '90. Fine, prior owner name front end paper. A lovely little book in fine contemporary binding. . Illustrated Edition. Crushed Morocco. Fine/No Jacket, As Issued. 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall.

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.
