In absolutely excellent condition, here is a beautiful antique, limp leather copy of Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. Undated but would have been published in the 1910s by Collins Clear-Type Press, London. Indeed there is a small inked inscription dated 1918. With colourful illustrated frontispiece and title page, and three further colour plates by Buckland.

I have only come across this edition a couple of times, and that was in the pale blue boards binding. I have never come across this lovely green leather edition. At time of writing I also have Jane Eyre and Villette in the matching binding. I cannot find any other copies in this binding for sale anywhere.

Inside the pages are clean, bright and tightly bound. With the above-mentioned inscription on the verso of the frontispiece, but no other writing or markings of previous ownership. The top edge is gilt and there are pale marbled endpapers.

In dark green limp leather with ornate gilt decoration to the front and spine. In superb order, with just a light scuff to the back. The gilt being sparkly bright. Overall a stunning copy.

Your vintage copy of Wuthering Heights will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to include a gift card and message if desired.
