This large vintage edition of The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky is in NEAR MINT condition with no markings inside and no attached bookplates. The only imperfection to be found is the small purple mark on the spine as shown. You may be able to clean/remove this mark, but I'm not going to attempt it. The paper is emaculate and flawless. The paper in this edition is actually superior to the related Easton Press edition; its all very smooth and glossy feeling, which also makes it extra heavy. It's hard to explain until you have them both physically before you.

This is basically a mint copy or as close to it as you'll ever see with a small mark on the spine, and it comes with its original slipcase and Sandglass, and a fun Heritage Press vintage advertisement thrown in for fun.

Simply as a reading edition of this masterpiece of world literature, you can't do any better in any regard. You can't buy a modern edition of this book that is anywhere near the quality. Happy to answer any questions.

For anyone unfamiliar with these vintage Heritage Press Club Sandglass editions, they are identical internally to the standard leather Easton Press editions. Same paper, typography, arrangement, illustrations, page numbers. They're literally identical inside. They aren't necessarily pretty display books like a leather Easton Press edition, but they are every bit as quality a reading experience.
