Description

This six-volume set gathers the collected poetry and satire of Peter Pindar (John Wolcot), James Thomson, and Edward Young, published separately in London from 1816 to 1820. Wolcot’s four volumes include political poems, lampoons, and topical verses, while Thomson and Young each appear in standalone volumes. Notable contents include Hair Powder, Lyric Odes, and Pindariana. The compact format reflects a period trend in small book production. All six are bound uniformly in vellum over marbled boards. Condition: Very Good. Moderate exterior wear with rubbing to vellum and corners. Bindings remain firm. Pages show scattered foxing and light toning. Format: Sextodecimo (16mo), six volumes. Collation: Thomson: 204 pp; Young: 300, [2] pp; Pindar vols: 501, 456, 501, and 512 pp. No illustrations. First collected printings. References: None cited. #29294 PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
