Description:
Each title consists of 2 volumes. No dates but from other copies on the net 1901 -1910. Usually printer is stated on last page : Ballantyne, Hanson & Co in # 1, vol 2 . Hazell, Watson & Viney in all other vol 2 s. Books have very tender spines in maroon pebble leather; corners are much stronger but all are scuffed and have been restored and strengthened. The book blocks are white and clean with no markings nor inscriptions and appear to have not been read. Marbled end papers in Fine condition. Gold lineations on spine and cover; the col lithographs could be a first appearance in Dickens reprints. Vignette in b&w on title pages. All edges seem to have been speckled but so faded they might have been marbled. The spines have not yet been restored and will be in due course, or upon receipt of an order. So there might be a delay in delivery. But this does give an opportunity to re-back some or all, completely with new leather, gilt and raised bands, should you so wish, at a cost to be advised.…

Description:
This book carries the date 1982 and contains a loose card with the date 14 9 (19)83 so it is believed to be the authentic "First Edition Thus". The actual ISBN in the book is 0723229511, not the one given above, which appears to be the more common reprint of a later date. The dj is entire but is yellowed around the edges especially the upper edge for a width of 50mm.

Description:
London: The Educational Book Co. Ltd.,, 1910. There are no dates in the volumes I examined. 1910 seems to be about right. This makes it more or less a "Centenary Edition" since C D was born in 1812, and the publishers would have wanted to get it finished in time for the Centenary ( my guess). I am not sure from where they get "1200 Illustrations". It seems only the 500 done by H F made it into the books. The condition is surprising and outstanding. The volumes have certainly never been read except for me dipping into Oliver Twist. The main "Fault" , which is hardly such, is a gentle uniform yellowing. 5 raised bands with elaborate intertwining leaves occupy 4 compartments; gold titles the other 2. Gold "C D" on the front cover; top edge gold; original reinforced interior hinges; "marbled" endpapers appear to be of the printed variety and are slightly foxed around the margins. All gold is bright and fresh. My price matches another similar set on in June 2015. Postage for 18 books will be far in…
