Item description from seller

Bound Volumes XII through XVIII [July 1871 - December 1874] complete, containing the full serializations of George A. Custer's "My Life on the Plains" and Anthony Trollope's "The Eustace Diamonds". All except Vol. XIV from the same owner [George D. Harrison] though the bindings vary slightly. Vol. XIV from a different source with a different, slightly smaller, binding [see photos]. Both serializations are complete [Custer starts in Vol. XIII January 1872 and ends in October 1874]. The Custer serialization is the true First edition, preceding the 1874 book publication. The first American book edition of "The Eustace Diamonds" was in 1872, so the serialization [which began in Sept. 1871 and finished in Jan. 1873] was mostly printed before the book publication. All volumes clean tight and unmarked, containing two important American first editions. Vol. XIV has front cover loosening but still attached.
