c1920s The Poems of Robert Greene, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson / Hurst & Company / Lovely Boards / With Some Vintage Wear
Here is a charming vintage hardback collection of The Poems of Robert Greene, Christopher Marlowe and Ben Jonson - With Critical and Historical Notes, and Separate Memoirs of the Three Writers. With lovely floral decoration to the boards. Contents are in good condition. With rubbing and chipping to the edges to reveal boards beneath (see photos), otherwise lovely.
Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound. Has a pencilled name on the front free endpaper but no other writing or markings of previous ownership. With a black and white frontispiece photo, else unillustrated.
Black cloth covered boards have red and gilt decoration to the front and spine, and a floral paste down. With some slight rubbing to the cloth at the spine ends and the gilt spine titles. As mentioned above, the main CONDITION POINT to note is some rubbing and chipping of the paste down to reveal boards beneath on the edges (see final photo).
So with some vintage wear to the boards, but remaining a lovely book. Your copy of The Poems of Jonson, Marlowe and Greene will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. I am always happy to add a gift card with a message to the parcel.
