This is the original Bentley Steventon Edition and should not be confused with the later 1901 J.F. Taylor Steventon Edition often encountered in the marketplace. The Bentley Steventon Edition is one of the most desirable nineteenth-century collected editions of Jane Austen’s works.
Spines lettered and decorated in gilt. Top edge gilt. Marbled endpapers. Illustrated with black-and-white plates. Full of witches, monks, knights, specters, miracles, and absurd misadventures, The Ingoldsby Legends reflects the 19th-century taste for antiquarian romance while also poking fun at it, making it an appealing title for collectors of Victorian literature, illustrated books, folklore, and comic writing.
This particular copy is the twelfth printing, dated 1962. The condition of the book reflects its age, with notable wear and binding issues, but all pages remain intact and readable. Author: Charles Mackay.
