Vintage Marvelous Miniature Library Leather Books Classics France Rare Complete
We are offering a vintage collection of six books, compiled in “The Marvelous Miniature Library”. This set is made up of six leather bound books, each closing with a snap closure, in a larger red leather pouch that also closes with a snap closure. The pouch marks this set as being “Made in France”. The pouch measures about 4.75” wide, 1” deep, and 5” tall (about 12.25” tall when fully opened). Each book measures about 1.25” tall, 2.25” wide, and 0.75” deep. This piece is the perfect addition to any collection.
The books included are marked as:
Hamlet and Macbeth/ William Shakespeare
The Arabian Nights/ Entertainments
Paradise Lost/ John Milton
Love and Other Stories/ Guy de Maupassant
Don Quixote/ Cervantes
The Golden Treasury of English Songs
Very good condition with some expected age-related wear. Some of the gilt of the titles has been rubbed away from use. There is some scratching to the leather of the pouch, and the leather of the Don Quixote book is cracked. We would not know if any pages or missing. This is to be expected of a piece of this age and should not affect the integrity of the piece.
