Beautiful four-volume collection of Franklin Library leather-bound Limited Editions.
Included in this lot:
• The Last of the Mohicans by James Fenimore Cooper - illustrated by N. C. Wyeth
• The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky - translated by Constance Garnett, illustrated by Walt Spitzmiller
• John Brown\'s Body by Stephen Vincent Benet - illustrated by Peter Hurd
• Up From Slavery by Booker T. Washington - illustrated by Alan Forbes
All four feature handsome leather bindings with gilt decoration and lettering, gilt page edges, decorative moire endpapers, and illustrations throughout. Several include impressive full-page color illustrations.
The books are in excellent pre-owned condition with very little apparent use. Bindings are tight and attractive, gilt remains bright, and interiors are clean and well preserved. Only minor shelf or handling wear consistent with age.
A very attractive group for a Franklin Library collection, classic literature library, or decorative book display.
All four books are included and sold together as one lot.
Please see photos for exact condition.
