Beschreibung

Both volumes are signed by Artist Rene Ben Sussan. Old Goriot is hand-numbered 9 of 1500. Eugenie Grandet is hand-numbered 1058 of 1500. As to condition, I believe that Old Goriot is in very good+ used condition and that Eugenie Grandet is in excellent near fine to fine used condition. There are no attached bookplates, embossed seals, or other owner marks within either book. Both books are also structurally solid. Old Goriot just has slightly more conspicuous cosmetic imperfections to the exterior. The photos really are a far better description than my words. The biggest issue I have with both volumes are their accompanying slipcases. Both are currently still functional (though some additional glue/tape wouldn?t hurt for OG where almost every seam is splitting to some degree), but neither is very attractive now. The Old Goriot slipcase is acceptable to good and the Eugenie Grandet slipcase is good to very good, with fade marks and one partially splitting back vertical seam being EG?s issues. Personally, I would have my local bookbinder make new ones for me that look like the originals, but that are made of more durable material. Again though, the photos are really a far better description than my words. Please review all photos carefully before purchasing, and feel free to ask questions if the photos do not suffice. We will also provide additional photos if requested Be sure to check out our other listings at Settembrini?s Selections.
