Someone went to considerable expense at some time, to uniformly rebind this complete set, this is not something that would be affordable nowadays, as it costs approximately £30 per volume.

Origninally sold at 5 shillings (a crown) per volume, this edition is probably the best illustrated of all the Dickens’ editions containing over 700 illustrations, an average of over 40 illustrations per volume.

A rare opportunity to buy an excellent collection of Dickens’ Works.
