Product Description

A highly collectible complete 24-volume Crowborough Edition of The Works of Arthur Conan Doyle, issued by Doubleday, Doran & Company in 1930. This desirable limited edition set is hand-numbered number 233 of only 760 sets produced and signed by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle on the limitation page. RARE, ANTIQUE AND COLLECTIBLE! Bound in the publishers original oatmeal cloth with printed spine labels, the set presents beautifully on the shelf with an understated and elegant early twentieth-century appearance. Includes the Sherlock Holmes works along with Doyles historical novels, adventures, memoirs, essays, and other writings. The interiors are generally clean and attractive with deckled edges and substantial paper stock throughout. The tipped-in photographic portrait of Doyle with original tissue guard and signed limitation page remains present. Condition varies by volume with expected age toning, shelf wear, and some rubbing or label wear. Additional volumes may show varying degrees of age and handling wear consistent with a nearly century-old limited edition set. An impressive and increasingly scarce signed Conan Doyle collection, especially desirable in complete form. A striking centerpiece for Sherlock Holmes collectors and rare book libraries alike.
