Item Description  

Wow.  Here is a nice set of antique books dealing with FreeMasonry dated 1921 for your buying consideration.  Would make a great gift for a special occasion, or keep for yourself! 

Nice encyclopedia set here in two volumes dealing with Free Masonry.  The books were issued by Albert Mackey.  Put out in 1921, not a first edition, that was put out in 1873.  Published by the Masonic History Company of New York.

The books are bound in what appears to be a reddish brown leather with a colored embossed perimeter on the front and embossed on back as well, not colored.  There is also a gold seal on the front and sides of each book.  Some minor cracking along the hinges, covers still securely attached to the books.  Title and volume number on the spine. The pages have gold gilting on the three open sides.  One of the spines is lightened up more than the other book, most likely from sun exposure.
