About This Item
London, 1884. Leather bound. G/VG, binds are exquiste, very slight wear to ridges and edges. Pages have some damp staining in places but does not affect plates or text. All plates in good condition.. Crushed red leather bind, 5-ridge spine, gilt lettering and tooling. Rough edge pages with gilt top edge; illustrations (some color). These are being sold for aesthetic appeal. They would make a wonderful book corner or shelf. The whole lot would cover 14" of shelf, 9" high, 6" deep.
The content is quite nice and would go for much more if a complete set - but alas this is a mis-matched set. Titles as follows: "The Thousand Nights and One Night" Vol. I, II, VI and VII; "Tales from the Arabic" - Vol. II. III; "Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp"; "Persian Letters".
If interested in more aesthetic lots just search "books by the foot-aesethetic
