Complete run of the original 14 volume set, published from 1951 - 1968, issued in linen uniformly. Volume 1, A Tale of a Tub", in dustjacket, the rest not. Spines variously browned or tanned, depending on cloth and year of issue. Still, a handsome set, with the same owner's holograph and/or nameplate in six of the volumes, and one volume with Blackwell bookshop ticket and bookmark. Internals fine. A collectible set, indeed.

Store Description

Johnnycake Books trades in rare and collectible books of most kinds, principally in fields of literature, illustrated, childrens, architecture/design, gardening and photography. We try to offer books that are a little unusual, offbeat and unexpected: most have a strong visual or design appeal. Our descriptions present our inventory as creatively and colorfully as possible, with occassional editorial commentary. We regard condition of our books as critical to our service: most are very good or better, in collectible condition. We are generally conservative in describing a book, even if that means it doesn't sound as good as it actually might be. We welcome your comments directly at johnnycake@snet.net or visit our website www.johnnycakebooks.com. Best wishes in your book collecting. Dan Dwyer
