About this Item
FIRST THUS, IN ORIGINAL BOX. Twelve volumes. Small 8vos. Original green cloth, spines lettered in gilt, upper boards stamped with Byron's arms, and "Crede Byron", in gilt. All edges mustard. Spines leaning and boards bending in early vols., corners gently bruised. Else, clean and tight. In the original green cloth and gilt-lettered box, with original binder's ticket: shabby, warp to sides, separated at various joints, cloth peeling, but complete. Very good/ poor An attractive later travelling set of Byron's Poetical Works, unusual in its original box: charming, even if poorly housed. With the death in 1798 of his great-uncle, Byron became the sixth Baron Byron of Rochdale, heir to Newstead Abbey, the family seat in Nottinghamshire. His coat of arms comprised a mermaid, crown and horses surmounting the motto "Crede Byron" ("Trust Byron"); here only the mermaid and crown feature. Seller Inventory # 2881
