-------------------
A fantastic collection of Charles Dickens books in their very scarce original publisher's cloth bindings, The Pickwick Papers in two different variant bindings. These are largely considered second editions, but are printed from the same typeset as the first editions which is why many of these undated editions do contain the same errors which identify the first edition copies, but these are a bit later. The Haunted Man is the only of the books here printed after Dickens' lifetime.
-------------------
Condition:
Original publisher's full cloth bindings, rubbed, but generally presentable and very attractive. Generally very clean through the text blocks. Some backstrips partially separated from page blocks, all boards attached. Some minor foxing to occasional leaves etc, mildly toned, but generally very good copies.
