by Gilbert, Sir W.S.
London: Macmillan, 1927. Hardcover. Very good. Gilbert and Sullivan's operas are some of the world's best-loved musical works, delighting audiences with their joyous wit, topsy-turvy logic and extravagant wordplay. This glorious collection includes the triumphant comic romps The Pirates of Penzance and The Mikado, as well as lesser-performed gems such as the fanciful The Sorcerer and the acerbic lampoon Patience. Octavo. In a full green morocco binding by Riviere & Son, with red morocco spine labels. decorative gilt stamping, ornamental dentelles, and marbled endpapers. Light rubbing to the extremities; otherwise very good. (Inventory #: 72327)
