1807 The Plays Of William Shakespeare In 12 Volumes (book Set)

£375    $503    €439
''The Plays Of William Shakespeare, Printed From The Text Of Samuel Johnson, George Steevens and Isaac Reed'', complete in 12 volumes. 1807 edition.
 
Each volume is handsomely bound in full calf leather. The volumes retain their original spines with five raised bands, gilt and blind-stamped decoration and ''1807'' stamped in gilt to the base of each. The board leather of each volume has been historically and sympathetically replaced (please see photographs). The volumes show signs of shelf wear with some staining to the boards of some volumes but generally present well. Bindings of each volume remain very tight.
 
Some browning and spotting to the pages, mostly to the preliminary. Small pencil inscriptions to opening pages of Vol I, otherwise all other pages remain free from inscription.
 
A handsome early edition.
