Mostly like new from a private library. Easton Press & Franklin Library Leather-bound Collectible Lot of 6 French Authors. The lot includes: Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert, The Tales of Guy de Maupassant by Guy de Maupassant (Easton Press), Selected Stories by Guy de Maupassant, Comedies by Moliere, The Princess of Cleves by Madame de La Fayette (Easton Press), and Candide by Voltaire.

NOTE: Books are in perfect condition with the following three exceptions: There are spots on the gilt top edge of The Tales of Guy de Maupassant. There are folded pages in the back of Candide and a small indentation on the top edge of Candide just above those folds.

Fully bound in genuine leather.  Deeply inlaid 22kt gold on the “hubbed” spine with gold accents and gilded page ends.  Superbly printed on acid-neutral paper that lasts for generations.  Easton Press books have sewn pages – not just glued like ordinary books and have a satin ribbon marker.
