Plays of William Shakespeare, Accurately printed from the Text of the corrected Copy left by the late George Steevens, Esq. With A Series of Engravings, from original designs of Henry Fusell, Esq, R. A. Professor of Painting: And a Selection of Explanatory and Historical Notes, from the most eminent Commentators: A History of the Stage, a Life of Shakespeare, &c. By Alexander Chalmers, A. M.
In Nine Volumes. London: 1805. Brown leather; books are a bit worn and have some foxing in the text, due to the age.
A few tissue papers inside may be loose; a couple may have a little to page margins, but not bad; overall the set is quite good, but not perfect. None of the bindings are broken; the are all strong and tight.
Marbled end sheets inside and marbling to the page edges, and they all match each other nicely. Some boards are slightly bowed, but still a beautiful set on the shelf!
