GOETHE, Johann Wolfgang von. (1749-1832) Werke, Vollständige Ausgabe letzter Hand. Tübingen: J. G. Cotta, 1806-1810. First Cotta collected edition, and the first to carry the title ‘Works’. Complete, with the often missing 13th volume. Difficulties in paper supply and unexpected growing demand following the first of four partial releases meant that the initial parts had to be reissued to cater for sales with the later parts. Hagen 16. 13 volumes, 8vo (200 x 120mm). 2 folded charts, one musical and the other genealogical (small repairs in lower outer margins due to paper faults on 4 lls. of vol. 5, 2 lls. of vol. 7, and 1 l. of vol. 9, repairs due to paper faults resulting in the loss of five words on 2 lls. of vol. 4). Contemporary half calf, marbled boards, gilt spine (spine extremities rubbed, edges worn, occasional unobtrusive worm tracks in lower gutter and boards). Provenance: A Konow (Inscription and numbering to endpapers) - unidentified recent bookplate.
