Description: Armadale Author: Collins, Wilkie Title: Armadale Publication: New York: Harper & Brothers, 1866 Edition: First U.S. Edition Description: Hardcover. Very Good Plus / No Jacket, As Issued. Tall 8vo., [i-vii] viii [9] 10-320pp. Beautiful First American Edition, published almost concurrently with the British Edition. The Smith, Elder two-volume edition was published in London in June of 1866, though it was advertised as for sale in mid May, Harper's edition was advertised for sale a week later. Original dark green pebbled cloth with titles in gilt on spine. 2pp of prelim. ads as called for. Frontis of the author and in-text illustrations by Thomas. Double-column text. Square, tight and clean throughout with little or no scattered foxing. Perhaps the odd spot here and there and mostly to end-papers. Minor edge-wear. Some blemishes and scratches to the cloth but still quite well-preserved. Unfaded gilt. Solid and clean overall and I think better than a Very Good but not Near Fine. A very pretty collectable copy of Collins' third great mystery after "The Woman in White" and "The Moonstone". Surprisingly one of the more uncommon of Collins' titles. (Hubin p.88; Gasson p.10-11).
