You will receive these 2 books. The smaller greenish blue toned book, appears to have never been opened fully, as if \"Time Forgot It\". So we opened as much as we could so as not to \"Break\" the cover. Back cover opened enough to see 299 pages. Title page showing, Edited by Robert Willmott, Houghton ,Mifflin Company, research showing it could be 1882. Gilt on spine and overall condition is Very Good for the age. Tissue over photo is very good, printing is small. Approx. 5.75 x 4 x 1.25 inches. The larger book is a John W. Lovell Company Publishers, no date on this edition either, research showing 1883, or close to that. 584 pages, 7.5 x 5 x 1.5 inches. Ornate red and dark tan toned boards. Wear showing along the edges of covers and boards. Aged evenly throughout. Some light dirt inside covers, for the most part, the pages are very clean, neat, no writing or bends. Our late Uncle lived to be 98. He focused on collecting every edition of a particular author, more so with the \"Masters of the Past.\" He loved how all the covers were almost like mini works of art. Perhaps you would like to supplement your own Collection with these. We pack the covers/spines with extra care on the Antique books. Thank you for your time here.
