About This Item
Paris: Garnier Freres Librarires-Editeurs, 1864 Near Very Good Two Volume Set half bound in decorated calf with gilt embellishment on spine. Boards are covered in paper overlay with marble effect. Boards are flat with some sunning to marble effect on both volumes, though outers are flat and corners sharp. Decorated end papers are free of inscriptions. Contents which include b/w engavings with tissue guards appear unread. Foxing, more prevalent in Volume 1 is evident around the margins of earlier folios and on the fore-edges. In Volume 2 this is only evident through the prelims. Text is in French. An attractive set
