This is a first edition set of the selected works of two of the most important writers in Australian literature: Banjo Paterson and Henry Lawson.
(I say 'collected' but I don't think either book is their complete works.)
Henry Lawson (1867-1922) was a bush poet, and is known as Australia's greatest short story writer. His works helped popularize the Australian vernacular in fiction; he was the first Australian writer to be granted a state funeral.
Andrew 'Banjo' Paterson (1864-1941)was an Australian bush poet and journalist. He wrote many ballads and poems about Australian life, focusing particularly on the rural and outback areas. Among his best-known pieces are The Man from Snowy River and Waltzing Matilda.
These books contain the best from both writers.
Photos of the some of the contents are attached.
They are in an 8 ½" x 11 ½" brown and cream slipcase.
Both are 304 pages of beautiful paper.
Creamy yellow cloth boards with dust jackets in the same shade.
Each contains photos.
The Paterson book appears to have been laid on a table in the sun—there is a little fading to part of the dust jacket. The spines of both jackets are a little faded.
The books themselves were apparently not read; they are absolutely pristine.
