Half contemporary sheep over marbled paper boards, spines in six compartments with gold decorations and a maroon and a purple morocco label lettered in gold on the spines; top edges gilt. Marbled endpapers and pastedowns. Bound by Bartlett & Co. of Boston and by Zaehnsdorf. Volume one illustrated with a frontispiece portrait of the author and with a few plates and one full-page illustration, volume two with a frontispiece and two plates, volume three with a frontispiece and one plate, volume four with a frontispiece and three plates, volume five with a frontispiece and two plates, volume six with a frontispiece, a plate, and a fold-out plan, volume seven with a frontispiece and four plates, volume eight with a frontispiece and a plate, volume nine with a frontispiece only, volume ten with a frontispiece and six plates, a few full-page illustrations, folding charts and a fold-out map at the end of the volume. Edited with additions by Henry B. Wheatley. This edition first published in 1893 (this edition too late to be found in Lowndes). The latter volumes contain an index for the diary and additional biographical material for Samuel Pepys. A lovely set containing the entirety of Pepys' diary, in which he describes the Great Fire of London, the coronation of Charles II, and several adventures from his daily life. Here Pepys paints an intimate portrait of life in London during the latter part of the seventeenth century. Very Good or better. Light rubbing to the extremities, an archival tape repair to the gutter of the frontispiece in volume one. …
