| WILLIAMS, HENRY SMITH: The history of the art of writing; manuscripts, inscriptions and muniments, oriental, classical, mediaeval, and modern, classified, described and reproduced in facsimile [4 bound volumes]. London: Hooper & Jackson, nd [c. 1900]. 4 volumes, first editions. Large folio (21" by 12"), unpaginated. 228 full-page plates, each with a page of text. Each volume has been attractively bound in half brown morocco, brown cloth boards, 6 raised bands, gilt titling and lining to spines. There is some rubbing to the extremities of the bindings, but generally the set is in near-fine condition. The set formerly belonged to the reference library in Lambeth, but the only indication of this is their bookplate on the front pastedowns - there are no stamps within the set - and they are to be thanked for binding the set up. This work is normally found unbound, and getting it bound would be prohibitively expensive today.
