Description

2 volumes. First edition in complete and separate form of Johnson's first major literary project, his satirical takes on Parliamentary politics. 8vo, in antique three-quarter calf over marbled boards, the corner-pieces and back trimmed in gilt, the spine with flat bands gilt ruled, gilt trimmed and ruled green morocco labels gilt lettered, additional gilt lettering in a separate compartment, marbled endpapers. xv, [2], 394; [2], 516 pp. A very handsome set, the text all but free of any foxing, the paper still quite fresh and with very little evidence of use, the bindings are solid and tight, some unobtrusive rubbing to the marbled boards, the calf in very fine condition.
