Half-Leather. Condition: Very Good. First Thus. Harper & Brothers, New York, New York. Book Condition:All seven volumes are in Very Good or better condition. Three-quarter leather over maroon pebbled cloth; five raised bands.All bound in the same manner with leater spines, tips and skivers. Minor shelf wear, leather is in excellent condition, virtually no foxing of pages. This is the publisher's edition, printed from the original plates and includes all of the editorial material (articles, stories, poetry, etc.) of the separate issues but lacks the advertisements and individual covers. It was the practice of the time for most of the better literary magazines to issue such editions before melting down the original printers' plates. Note: ''Harper's Magazine' began publication in 1850 and recreated the American magazine, serving as a promotional vehicle for Harper and Brothers books as well as the new 'literary' fiction and essay of the time, using sophisticated illustration and the best authors. Subject matters range from art, fiction, and poetry to history and science. As such it makes a terrific read as an anthology of its moment in time. A handsome set.
