This is a lovely set of 6 poetry books. The dates range from 1884 -1925. Each book measures roughly 7\" x 4 7/8\" with varying thicknesses. The leather on these covers is incredibly soft to the touch, and it is a flexible cover, not rigid. Each has some wear to the corners which can be seen in photos. I would have included more pics if I could.
Publisher is Thomas Y. Crowell Company New York.Each book has a pretty tight binding with gorgeous illustrations of the authors portrait in the front with tissue paper covering intact. The dates and discernible condition for each book are as follows:
Shelley\'s Poems - No date shown in the front - tight bindingJohn Keats\'s Poems - 1895 - reasonably tight binding with a tiny bit of exposed threads that can be seen inside but no pages are loose.Rossetti\'s Poems - No date shown in the front - reasonably tight binding with a tiny bit of exposed threads that can be seen inside but no pages are loose.Matthew Arnold\'s Poems - 1897 & 1925 - reasonably tight binding with a tiny bit of exposed threads that can be seen inside but no pages are loose.Swinburne\'s Poems - 1884 - tight bindingWhitman\'s Poems - 1902 - reasonably tight binding with a tiny bit of exposed threads that can be seen inside but no pages are loose.
