About This Item
John Wannamaker, Philadelphia, nd. (ca. 1905). Very Good. Introds. by W.P. Trent and J.B. Henneman are dated 1904 but there is no date accompanying imprint or copyright information for the set; lovely engraved ill. including frontispieces. with tissue guards. All binding firm; minimal shelfwear--red grosgrain-look cloth boards and bright gilt lettering on spines with raised bands and gilt striation. Paper very fine and only mildly age-toned, but vol. 1 (Vanity Fair) has what appears to be foxing on front matter. A small area along front edge of its front board is faded to pink. Corners of boards of three other vols. have similar fading.
