The Plays of William Shakespeare Edited by Thomas Keightley

A very smart example of this four volume edition of Shakespeare's plays from around 1890 in its original green cloth with gilt blocking to the boards and all edges gilt. The bevel-edged boards are almost fine and the text appears unread with a little foxing. The great actors of the day are illustrated in photogravure frontispieces to some of the plays with Ellen Terry as Beatrice as opposite the first title page, Henry Irving as Shylock etc. A very nice set. Additional postage may be necessary for some countries.
