Jane Austen Novels, Vintage Modern, Set of 6. 6 linear inches on the shelf (maximum height: 9 inches; max depth: 6 inches). Books and dust jackets are mostly in very good condition, except for small edge tears, mild discoloration to the jacket spines, and a dime-sized chip to the front cover of one of the volumes.
Unlike the overstuffed works of some Victorian era counterparts, the romance and wit of Jane Austen not only continues to resonate with a 21st Century audience, it has become a juggernaut, with frequent theatrical and literary adaptations. As such, early leather-bound editions are expensive and scarce. Even assembling a complete set of this more recent edition by Zodiac Press (London) was a challenge.
Persuasion. Second Printing. 1960.
Emma. Third Printing. 1960.
Northanger Abbey. Third Printing. 1960.
Mansfield Park. Third Printing. 1962.
Sense and Sensibility. Fourth Printing. 1961.
Pride and Prejudice. Sixth Printing. 1963.
