Another Great Auction from Doncaster Auction Centre, including Jewellery, Collectibles, Vintage, Retro, A Real Eclectic Mix
A set of 33 volumes of the collected works by Robert Louis Stevenson, uniformly bound in a dark reddish-brown material, likely leather or buckram, with gilt-stamped lettering on the spines. Visible titles include “Weir of Hermiston,” “Letters Vol. II,” “The Ebb-Tide,” “An Inland Voyage,” “Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde,” “Fables & other stories,” “Memoirs of Fleeming Jenkin,” and “Records of a Family of Engineers.” The title page for “Weir of Hermiston” confirms the author as Robert Louis Stevenson and lists the London publishers as William Heinemann, Ltd., in association with Chatto & Windus, Cassell & Company, Ltd., and Longmans, Green & Company, suggesting a likely late 19th or early 20th-century publication.
