This listing is for ELEVEN hardcover volumes from the original 12-volume set of "Complete Works of Robert Browning," published in 1898 by Thomas Y. Crowell Co. Publishers in New York. The tan clothbound books are each about 5.75" by 8.5" in size and the stack of books is about 15.5" thick. Overall the books are in good vintage condition, although there are some scuffs and stains to the covers. Some of the gilt on the top page stack edges is rubbed away; the outer page edges are deckled. No writing or other marks inside that I could find, just some age-darkening to pages. Each volume has a tissue-covered frontispiece opposite the title page, most colored. Please see the photos for details.
The volumes included are: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12. Volume 2 is missing.
The books are all totally readable, but many of these vintage and antique sets are purchased for home decorating, house staging, play props, etc. Please convo me with any questions. I pack carefully and ship same or next business day buying from Arkansas with free tracking. Satisfaction guaranteed or money cheerfully refunded.
