Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Eleven volumes. The complete set of Secker & Warburg's Uniform Edition issued with the variant dustwrappers designed by Denis Piper [1928-1987]. The bulk of Secker's Uniform Edition was issued in the publisher's generic green and white wrappers, however, between 1959 and 1967 they periodically issued the same volumes in these striking Denis Piper-designed dustwrappers and complete sets of all eleven volumes are rarely encountered. Most copies were issued to schools and public libraries, with few going to the trade unmarked examples in good condition are very scarce. These eleven copies were issued to the trade, none of the wrappers are price-clipped and all eleven volumes are in very good to near-Fine condition. Save for a pair of unobtrusive tape-shadows to the endpapers of 'A Clergyman's Daughter' all are free of annotations or other faults. Whilst the list of titles in Secker's Uniform Edition often includes Orwell's 'Shooting an Elephant' there was no issue of that title in a Denis Piper dustwrapper, this is the complete set of Denis Piper's work for the Edition. The eleven volumes comprise: Nineteen Eighty-four [1966], Animal Farm [1961], Critical Essays [1960, Down and Out in Paris and London [1966], Keep the Aspidistra Flying [1966], Homage to Catalonia [1967], Burmese Days [1961], A Clergyman's Daughter [1960], The Lion and the Unicorn [1962], The Road to Wigan pier [1959], Coming up for Air [1959].…
