This is an exceptional version of a book that has been printed in hundreds of editions. Houghton Mifflin gave it the king’s treatment in the De Luxe edition issues by the Riverside Press in the height of its glory. The paper is oversized and of the highest quality. The illustrations are superb. The text is lovely to behold. The bindings are tight, and the covers are lovely.
Given the thousands of competing editions, readers will value this for the evident craft in the bookmaking. Not only is it a wonderful set, but it will make neighboring books seem cooler just by proximity!
Condition: Very good. Light fading on the cover but no cuts or chips. Cover printing is fine. All interior elements are bright, bold, and complete. Bindings are secure.
