Full-Leather. Zustand: Good. Second Edition. All fifty volumes of this set of British novels. This is a new edition dating from 1820. This set was originally published in 1810. All are in at least good condition with rubbing to the spine and around the edges and some light discolouration to the front and rear panels. Each volume has two title panels on the spine - at the top this has 'British Novels' and the volume number and at the bottom the title of the individual novel. Most of these panels have unfortunately been lost with the top panel only on eleven volumes and the bottom panel on only thirteen with some of these only remaining in part. There is a little browning to the tops of the marbled page edges. Each volume has the original owner's bookplate - this was Alfred Octavius Hartley, M.A. of Steeple Ashton Vicarage in Wells in Norfolk. There is brown spotting on the title pages of each volume with some spotting on the following pages and the equivalent pages at the back of the book. There is some spotting through each book but this is generally quite light and does not affect all the pages.
