New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1913. The Novels And Other Works of Lyof N. Tolstoi. Printed in English. Complete in 24 Volumes. Bound in gilded cloth bindings. With intricately gilded spines. Gilded framing to the covers. The top edges are gilded. Printed on quality rag paper. Thick black ink. Red and black title pages. Engraved frontis protected in tissue. 8.8 inches tall. Roughly 26 inches of shelf space. In excellent condition. Complete and intact. The main point of wear is that at one point this set appears to have suffered from water damage (which has dried long ago), which is predominantly external, otherwise this set would be Very Good. The hinges are fully attached. Clean internally, near free of any trace of foxing. An early bookplate. Minor mustiness, some waviness. Internal hinges with some separation. A little loose, but strongly bound and intact. Some general usage wear. Early name in pencil. This is a beautiful set and displays well. This set would make an excellent gift and/or addition to any fine library. In addition to their shelf presence, antiquarian books make an excellent investment. We always pack very securely to help ensure safe handling during transit. All books are individually wrapped and are always professionally padded. We offer a full refund guarantee, per our terms described on our site, with notification of such intent requested. Please contact us with any inquiries.
