The complete set of the Shakespeare Head Edition of the Novels and Selected Writings of Daniel Defoe
Oxford, Basil Blackwell, Publisher to the Shakespeare Head Press, 1927.
Octavo, 14 volumes; light blue cloth lettered in gilt on the spines; top edges gilt, others uncut; free endpapers unevenly discoloured (a problem apparently endemic to this publication); a few trifling signs of age and use, but essentially a uniformly fine set.
The edition was limited to only 750 sets. Titles are Robinson Crusoe (3 volumes); Colonel Jack (2 volumes); Moll Flanders (2 volumes); The Fortunate Mistress (2 volumes); Memoirs of a Cavalier; The Shortest Way with the Dissenters; A Plan of the English Commerce; Captain Singleton; and A Journal of the Plague Year. [14 items].
