Description: This listing is for "FRANKENSTEIN" written by Mary Shelley in 1818. The book is dated 1888. It measures 4.25 x 5.75 inches with 317 pages. Construction is hardcover, paper litho over boards with cloth spine and gilt titles. Pages have deckled (untrimmed) edges which was a desirable form at the time because it gave the book a handmade look. Many 19th-century publishers offered two versions of the same book: one with trimmed edges and a higher-priced deckle version. This 134 year old book is in very good overall with some wear to the cover, mostly around the edges and spine tips. The last two pages have shallow chips at the top, but otherwise the pages are clean and binding is tight. A rare and desirable book. On consignment. Thanks for looking! Thanks for looking!
