The Mellstock Edition.
SIGNED BY HARDY
The Works of Thomas Hardy The Mellstock Edition.
Macmillan, 1919.
Thirty-seven volumes, limited to only 500 sets, volume one signed by the author. Each volume in original blue cloth with author's gilt motif on upper cover. Titles and elaborate decoration in gilt to the spines. Frontispiece of Hardy by W.Strang in volume one, map of Wessex in volume two. A near fine set, exceptionally bright and crisp for the most part, with a small abrasion to one spine and occasional mottling to the boards, particularly of the final volume.
The best set of Hardy's works, and one of the finest and most imposing of all literary sets.
