Dore, Gustav - ILLUSTRATIONS TO THE HOLY BIBLE

No place, No Publisher No Date plates [226] by Gustav Dore . Large Quarto half calf and cloth sides with 3 compartments of spine only remaining [both covers detached/all leather edges worn/spine detached from lower board & missing about half the leather]All Edges are Gilt. THIS VOLUME has NO titlepage and no text, no page or picture numbers and the plates do not appear to be in any order. There are two free endpapers to front and back and each cover has clean, original pastedown. Of the two hundred and tweny six plates only a very small number have any foxing and that is mostly marginal. The plates are well printed, the verso is always blank, and the margin is wide and 95% clean and the paper thicker than a usual page. We surmise that this book of plates would be best sold as either individual pictures for framing or for grangerizing a bible that is being rebound.
