A complete collection of the poetical works of the Romantic Thomas Gray, illustrated with a portrait frontispiece. Complete in two volumes. A collection of the poems by Thomas Gray.

Bookplate to the front pastedowns, 'Augustus Terry Clarke'. In a half calf binding with marbled paper to the boards. Externally, generally smart. Rubbing to the boards. Light marks to the boards and spines. A little fading to the spines. Bookplate to the front pastedowns. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and generally clean with the odd spot, mostly to the first and last few pages. Very Good. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 692P30
