Original pictorial cream wrappers printed in red and blue. Mild soiling to backstrips and wrappers of first 3 parts, small chip to backstrips of part 1, 14, 19 & 31-32, corners creased on part 32, overall quite fresh. Provenance: Oliver Brett, later Lord Esher (armorial bookplate on case). FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WEEKLY PARTS, THE ONLY WORK IN THE BARSETSHIRE NOVELS TO BE SERIALIZED. Advertisements conform to Sadleir except without 3 "non-compulsory" insets, including the extracts from Trollope in part 12 found in only one copy by Sadleir.
