Variously paginated. (32mo), original blindstamped cloth with titles in gilt on spine, all but 1846 with printed endpapers, in the publisher’s dust-wrappers with printed paper spine labels.
It is fascinating to note the changes in the jackets over the two decades we have here, as the color changed from dusky violet in the ’40s and ’50s to dark blue in the mid-’50s to a lighter blue in the later ’60s. The publisher (thankfully) abandoned the French-fold- style jacket sometime after 1846 and before 1851.
