SCOTT, Sir Walter. /POETICAL WORKS/. Complete seven volume set,
beautifully bound in cherry red morocco. Bradbury, Agnew & Co., London.
ND (1870s). 16mo. This is the "Handy Volume 'Scott'" with the spines in
blind ruled compartments, boards ruled in blind, and all edges gilt.
Pagination: vol. I, lxiv, 280; vol. II, xiv, 372; vol. III, xvi, 268;
vol. IV, xvii, 272; vol. V, xi, 260; vol. VI, xiv, 251; vol. VII, x,
351: approximately 2,200 pages of commentary and text in a set
measuring, in all, barely 6 inches across by 4.5 inches high and 3.25
inches deep. Each volume contains one, or more, full page engravings of
scenes from Scott's poems. The set is in exquisite condition, the only
observable flaw is a tiny blemish to the base of the spine of volume I,
and some very slight wear, generally, to the bottom edges of all the
volumes. The yellow endpapers are all clean and tight. The boards are
pristine. Overall, in near fine condition. This set would make a
wonderful gift.
