Waverley Novels. by SCOTT, Sir Walter

Edinburgh & London: Cadel & Company and Simpkin and Marshall, 1829-1833: 1829. 48 volume set, 6 1/2 inches tall. A very good looking early Victorian full calf binding with gilt raised bands, twin labels in scarlet and dark olive and fine gilt panels. Red speckled edges. Every volume has a fine engraved frontispiece and vignette on the title page. Armorial bookplate of Walter Johnson 'Onus Sub Honore'. Some marks and scuffs to the boards and light foxing to the preliminaries but a fine clean set of probably the most influential and popular novels of the 19th century.
