Voltaire - Candide & Zadig - The Franklin Library 1977

Very good condition. Lightest of wear to the gilded edges and binding and very light discolouration to spine, as pictured. Inside immaculate; no previous owner's inscriptions, nor any marginalia. A nice example.

Collectors of full leather-bound editions published by The Franklin Library are all-to-familiar with the lavish, high-quality bindings of these fine books. Features include:

- High-quality paper;

- Pages that are sewn, not glued, into the binding;

- Gold-gilded page edges on all three sides;

- Raised spine bands that give each book a distinctive antique look.

Please consult all photos before purchasing to make sure you are happy with the condition of the book(s). Should you have any questions or want more photos , please do not hesitate to reach out. 

All our books come from a smoke-free, climate-controlled library.

We are always happy to accept a return if the buyer is not happy with a book they receive. In the unlikely event you do encounter an issue with your item or delivery, please do message us before opening a case, as we will always do our best to address the issue.

Combined Shipping

For domestic buyers, we always refund excess shipping charges where more than two items are bought.
