A sound ex-library set with gilt callnumbers on the spines, library labels on the (replaced) front free endpapers, and small library stamps on the versos of the title-pages.

A reasonable reference set of Lowndes which seems to have been rebacked in black library cloth with the original boards and leather corners retained and stained black to match; boards a little rubbed, spine-titling is limited to an indication of the volume (eg A-C) and is in different sizes on different volumes, contents Good (one or two marginal annotations).

While the prices shown are now only of historical interest, and there are some inaccuracies, the work remains useful for other information. The title and catchword entries are sometimes helpful in verifying citations not easily located in other catalogs." - Balay Spines rubbed, vols 3 and 5 have lost the top 2-3 inches of their spines, endpapers of 2 volumes partly split at hinges, stamp of "Lord Cullen of Ashbourne" (Brien Ibrican Cokayne, 1868-1932, first Baron Cullen of Ashbourne, Governor of the Bank of England) on front free endpapers.

    4 vols, half-calf and marbled boards, spines with leather title-labels, gilt, and gilt volume numbers, marbled endpapers, 8vo, xii, 530 +531-1054 + 1055-1528 + 1529-2002 pp (plus interleaving throughout the bibliography) The first edition of Lowndes' stupendous achievement and the only one to be published by William Pickering, this manual was issued in parts to form four "handsomely printed volumes" (Keynes). Breslauer and Folter annotate this in their catalogue: "First edition of what is still the best general bibliography of English literature from the book collector's viewpoint." An interleaved copy : the entire bibliography has been bound with a blank leaf between each printed leaf, to allow notes and additions and there are a good number of such insertions, in ink and pencil, some in a 19th century hand and some later. Similarly, several of the printed pages have marginal manuscript annotations. A Good sound set, boards somewhat rubbed and with some edgewear, most corners worn, some light foxing. The inner hinges have been strengthened with cloth tape.
