Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

HONE, William. Hone’s Works: The Every-Day Book and The Table Book. Complete in Three Volumes. London: Ward, Lock & Co. / Hutchinson & Co., c.1880s. Complete three-volume later Victorian edition of William Hone’s celebrated works of popular antiquarianism, folklore, manners, customs, amusements, ceremonies and calendar traditions. The set comprises two volumes of The Every-Day Book and one volume of The Table Book, together forming a substantial illustrated record of British social life, seasonal observances, festivals, sports, pastimes, literary curiosities, historical anecdotes and popular traditions. Hone’s works were originally issued in the 1820s and remain important sources for the study of English folklore, popular culture, antiquarian customs and nineteenth-century social history. This later Victorian edition presents the works in an attractive decorative format, illustrated throughout with numerous engravings, including the portrait of William Hone, illustrated frontispieces and many in-text wood engravings. Bound in the publisher’s original decorative blue cloth, with gilt lettering and black ornamental blocking to the spines, and attractive gilt and black decorative designs to the upper boards. The set has strong shelf appeal and displays very well. The volumes bear later ownership markings, including the ex-libris label of C. Vivian Henry, whose private library included literature, history, travel, art and antiquarian works. Condition: Complete in three volumes. Publisher’s decorative blue cloth bindings with gilt and black decoration. Spines bright and attractive, with gilt lettering generally well preserved. Boards presentable, with light rubbing, shelf wear, minor marks, and some bumping to corners and spine ends. Page edges age-toned. Interiors generally clean, with light toning, occasional spotting and handling marks. One volume has a notably split/cracked front inner hinge, with the front board weakened and partly detached or becoming detached; another hinge shows some wear. Text blocks remain readable and usable. Illustrated throughout with engravings. C. Vivian Henry ex-libris label present. A handsome decorative set, complete and attractive on the shelf, but with hinge faults requiring careful handling. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form part of the description. Additional photographs are available upon request.…
