Printing Details
Hardback. Full leather, five raised bands and gilt titling to spine. Blindstamped design to front and read boards, beveled edges. All pages edges gilt and gauffered. 19 × 12.5cm, xxii + 673pp.
A good selection of Byron's poetry, with illustrated and printed title page, and with eight full-page illustrations.
Condition
Good condition for age. There is rubbing to the joints, spine ends and corners but the leather remains in otherwise decent condition. The first few pages are foxed and with a small stain to the bottom margin through to page viii of the introduction but the main body of text has strong, secure binding and clean pages. An attractive copy.
