Marlborough: His Life and Times
Scribner’s (Scribners), NY, 1933-1938, 1st American edition, Produced in 6 volumes rather than 4 as the British edition. Scribners chose to split the first two volumes into two books each, but then the final two volumes were not so divided, making a total of six. The setting, illustrations, and maps are identical to the English 4 volume work. Bound in emerald green cloth, gilt titles on spines. Here is a uniform set in the very attractive blue and gold dustwrappers. Books are tight, clean, unworn, top edges dusty and a few spots on vols 1 and 6. Bookplate in vol 2, owner name in vol 3. Dustwrapper is clipped in vol 3 only. Dustjackets have plenty of wear with large losses to mspines of vols 2 and 6. (A40b). Item #7841
