A beautiful late 19th-century collection of six works by Nathaniel Hawthorne, published by Houghton, Mifflin and Company and printed at The Riverside Press in Cambridge, circa 1880s.
The collection includes three complete two-volume works: Twice-Told Tales, The Marble Faun (The Romance of Monte Beni), and Mosses from an Old Manse.
Bound in dark cloth with delicate gilt lettering and detailing along the spines, the books have aged to slightly varying shades of charcoal and brown. Inside are lovely illustrated title pages and typography characteristic of the period.
The bindings show authentic age-related wear, including fading, rubbing and fraying along the spine ends and corners. A particularly lovely set for an old library, stacked on a coffee table or tucked amongst other antique books.
Circa 1880s
