Description: Boston, Dana Estes and Company. Illustrated Cabinet Edition. Hard Covers, Octavo. Book, These are the first three volumes of the four-volume complete set, bound in maroon cloth with gilt spine decor and upper page edges. Missing Volume 4, to be clear. Undated, but circa turn-of-the-cenury 1890s to 1900s. The texts are in nice shape, blocks tight; covers with minor shelfwear, save for one flaw: some water contact in two places (front of V. II and back of V. I) has discolored the cloth dye. Otherwiswe these look nice on the shelf. They are former university library copies, but with no spine labels, ownership and discard stamps, nice black cat bookplates applied to endpapers. Each volume has a tissue-guarded frontispiece and illustrative plates in places; V. I is missing one of the plates later in the book. Good/No Jackets.
