Roundabout Papers.
by Thackery, W. M.
London, Smith Elder, 1865.. New York, Harper & Brothers, 1865. 2 volumes. First British edition and first American edition together in a slip case. Both volumes are in publishers' original full cloth with blind-stamped decorations and titles in gilt on the spines. Someone has preserved them both in professionally made blue cloth dust jackets with gilt-stamped leather labels on the spines and a matching slip case. Minor wear at extremeties, otherwise fine. Boards are bright and clean, overall exceptionally good condition. Slipcase is badly chipped at head and heel, but a nice way to display these two first editions together. (Inventory #: 10039)
