Thank you for looking at my beautifully illustrated excelsior edition hardcover vintage book of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s work copyright unknown (not provided, but researched on ChatGPT to know when The American News Company of New York publish The Poetical Works of Elizabeth Barrett Browning (complete, illustrated, excelsior edition and found circa 1880). This book belonged to my mother who loved to read with a genuine appreciation for some of the famous poets so many cherish.
The book is a rare nostalgic piece of literature from the 19th century and would make a charming and highly valuable addition to any book collection while unfolding any reader’s imagination and inner passion with her intellectual verse. Within you will find the contents including the Books of Aurora Leigh and a collection of poetic writings, sonnets, and paraphrases.
This book does not hold back from providing not only Browning’s beautiful heartfelt writings as it also adds delicate charm with fine, exquisite artistic embellishments throughout – a treasure trove waiting to be discovered through the journey of this rare find. Gold adorns the cover in addition to gilding the edges of the pages within.
This book has been well taken care of and in fairly good condition with no writing, doodles, tears or blemishes to point with the exception of the binding showing wear. The pages are all intact. (see my photos).
