Published by T. McClean / John Camden Hotten, London
Seller: Renaissance Books, Victoria, BC, Canada
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Very good copy, of what seems to be a combination of the McClean edition of 1855, and the Hotten edition of 1899. First titlepage and frontis are clearly from the 1855 edition, ( toned and foxed ), and second titlepage clearly states John Camden Hotten, 1859. All plates called for are present, but one is bound before the second title page. The binding appears to be a re-bind, incorporating the originall gilt stamped, pebbled blue cover. Occassional light foxing throughout. What makes this copy interesting, is the bookplate which states " Loan Collection of Rodman Wanamaker " See photos.
