About This Item
Garden City, New York: Nelson Doubleday, 1971. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Nelson Doubleday, New York, 1971. Condition: Very good. No DJs as issued. Handsome three volume set of Henry James writings including The Portrait of a Lady / The Golden Bowl / The Spoils of Poynton and other stories. 1/2 biege and brown boards with gilt and red titles on spine. Very slight wear and bumping to spine tops and bottoms but clean and bright. Slight discolouration on text block edges due to paper quality. No markings internally, pages clean and bright (see pictures). All our books at the moment are reduced so the price you see reflects our 33% SALE! ***STRIKE UPDATE*** Due to Royal Mail strike action there are delays within their service so for customers within the UK I can send by courier. If you would prefer this option, just drop me a line and I'll get you a quote. If this is intended as a gift, please email first and I can gift wrap for no extra charge. If you would like special delivery but don't see an option for it, just email first and I'll obtain a quote. If you have any questions, require more information or if you would like more pictures, do not hesitate to get in touch. PLEASE NOTE! These are heavy (over 2kg) so probably best if they stay in the UK. Courier would probably be cheapest and cost around £6. I can send an invoice for the adjustment after purchase and after I know how you would like them to be shipped..
