A handsomely bound set of the scarce eighth edition, containing revisions that were "more thorough than had ever been attempted in any previous edition. It has received so great an accession of original contributions, that nine-tenths of its contents may be said to be absolutely new" (vol. I, pp. xviii-xix). The first edition was published in 1768. 22 volumes, quarto (279 x 216 mm). Contemporary green morocco, spines lettered and richly floral-tooled in gilt, twin gilt fillets and floral roll bordering covers, board edges ruled in gilt, turn-ins richly gilt, marbled endpapers and edges. With 405 engraved plates, of which numerous double-paged and a few folding, and prolific woodcuts in the text. Bound with half-titles. Vol. XXI lacking pp. 89-96. Ownership signature of one Elizabeth Foster Staniforth on first blank of vol. I. Couple of volumes with marks to covers, light rubbing and wear to extremities, neatly retouched with colour, some offsetting from plates and very occasional foxing, else largely clean throughout; vol. XI with neat paper repair to upper margin of p. 773; vol. XX with closed central tear to fold of plate 38, without loss. A very attractive set indeed.

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. 26 volumes (Complete 6th Edition in 20 volumes with the Supplementary edition in 6 volumes), 11 inches tall. A superb full diced calf with gilt raised bands and very fine gilt tooling to the panels. The diced boards are framed within twin gilt fillets. There is blotchiness to the panels of the first 20 volumes, some foxing and browning of leaves, a small amount of ancient superficial loss to long defunct insects, there is also a slight musty smell but the vast majority of plates and leaves are clean and there is no splitting. The first 20 volumes contain all 581 numbered engraved full page plates. The Supplement appears to lack I plate but has a total of 123 (more than called for) engraved full page plates and all 19 engraved maps. The 6th edition is difficult to find in remotely presentable condition and for all its minor faults this is a splendid set. With the green ticket of G. & J. Robinson Booksellers (and Binders) Liverpool.

18 vols, front., plates (some folding). 4to. An exceptionally clean set. Handsome contemporary tree calf, raised bands, compartments ruled horizontally in gilt, red & black morocco labels; a little rubbed, boards occasionally sl. scuffed & corners bumped. Bookplate of M. Dundas on leading pastedowns. A very attractive set in contemporary binding. Alston III 563; ESTC N6642. Volumes I to XII were edited by Colin Macfarquhar; volumes XII to XVIII, by George Gleig. The Encyclopaedia Britannica is the longest running encyclopaedia in the English language. It was first issued in 100 parts between 1768 and 1771 and first published in book form in 1771 consisting of three volumes, edited single-handedly by William Smellie. Today it is written by 100 full-time editors and more than 4,000 contributors. Its authors have included over 110 Nobel Prize winners and five American presidents. The 2010 edition, which spans 32 volumes was the last printed edition. It continues today as a digital entity. The second edition, published in 1778, was issued in ten volumes and this third edition, the last of the eighteenth century editions, in 18 volumes. Founded by two Scottish printers Colin Macfarquhar and Andrew Bell, the Encyclopaedia Britannica was one of the most enduring legacies of the Scottish Enlightenment. Bell became sole owner after Macfarquhar's death in 1793 and remained so until his own death in 1809. He was also a skilled engraver producing almost all of the copperplate illustrations for the first four editions.

Prima edizione
First edition, with all the title pages reading The New Royal Encyclopedia (see Alston); 3 volumes in 4, folio, 8-p. subscribers' list at the back of volume III (listing over 1500 names), contemporary full reversed paneled calf, red and black morocco labels on spine; engraved frontispiece in volume I and 153 engraved plates (including 7 folding maps) placed in a separate fourth volume (plate list calls for 150); some slight cracking of the joints on the plate volume, spine ends slightly chipped and/or rubbed, but otherwise very good and sound. Apparently issued in 150 parts. Not in Walsh, Anglo-American General Encyclopaedias; not in Circle of Knowledge; Goldsmiths'-Kress no. 13772; Alston III, 568 recording the third edition (1797?) only with the title The New Encyclopaedia: "The extraordinary variety of editions for each volume found in various copies makes this seem like a bookseller's hoax. The title page to the second volume in the Signet copy reads The New Royal Encyclopaedia . No acknowledgement is made to previous works . The usually found combination is as follows: vol. I - third edition; vol. II - second edition; vol. III - second edition. One of the editor's copies is clearly the first issue with all the title pages reading The New Royal Encyclopaedia and without and edition number.".

Manoscritto / Collezionismo cartaceo
No Binding. Condizione: Fine. WOOLF, VIRGINIA. (1882-1941). British novelist, essayist and critic. Typed Letter Signed, Virginia Woolf , on her light blue, imprinted 52 Tavistock Square, W.C.1. Telephone: Museum 2621 stationery. Full page, small quarto. Very fine condition. Bloomsbury, February 5, 1928. To: Dear Mr. Lynd . Woolf writes: ''Thank you very much for asking me to write the article on Thackeray in the Encyclopedia Britannica. I m afraid I cannot do it, as I am already too much engaged, and I know so little of Thackeray that I should have to give up more time than I can spare at present. But it was very good of you to ask me, and I am sorry that I cannot manage it. With many thanks, yours sincerely, Virginia Woolf''. Wonderfully signed in her characteristic deep lavender ink. Her letters are uncommon, and this is an attractive letter, with a fine association of literary names.
