Description: SHAKESPEARE, WilliamFirst edition, published by J. M. Dent.Known as Shakespeare “First Folio” - 3 Vol. Tragedies Comedies, Histories. DescriptionWilliam Shakespeare's Comedies, Histories, & Tragedies is a collection of plays by William Shakespeare, commonly referred to by modern scholars as the First Folio. Originally published in 1623, about seven years after Shakespeare's death. It is considered one of the most influential works ever published. The set is increasing scarce in its original green cloth on board binding. This one retains the original gilt design and lettering. As with all of the serious works in the Dent & Sons series, the block is of fine India paper, and feels wonderfully tactile. Minor rub to the head and board edges. One of the volumes bears a small split at the end paper section. The binding remains good and tight; spines are square.
