About This Item

London: Edward Moxon, 1864. First and Various Very Early Edtions. First and Various Very Early Edtions. Six Volumes. Bound to match in full 19th Century finely polished dark blue calf with single fillet gilt ruled border and blindstamped design, spine with six panels, red morocco label as well as five ornately tooled panels, marbled endsheets, and marbled side edges (all three). Superb bold gilt decorations along side edges of boards. The titles were all owned by family members of the Stahlschmidt family, all either presented or owned thereby: two with presentations to Caroline L. Stahlschmidt, from her brother, 1859, 1860; three signed by Bertha Henrietta Stahlschmidt, 1859, 1860, 1862; and one signed by Caroline Louisa Stahlschmidt (i.e. without a presentation). In order of publication date: Poems, 1858, Twelfth Edition; The Princess, 1858, Eight Edition; Maud, 1859, A New Edition; Idylls of the King, 1859, First Edition; In Memoriam, 1860, Ninth Edition; Enoch Arden, First Edition. A very pleasing set, and quite a provenance, an obvious treasured family heirloom, with the uncommon feature of having every book in the uniformly bound "set" inscribed and dated contemporaneously. A fine set, all clean and bright internally.
