Antique Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Poetry Books Lot 2 Illustrated 1869 1881 For Sale

Lot of two antique volumes of poetry by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, including editions dated 1869 and 1881.

Both volumes contain illustrated selections of Longfellow's poetry and feature period bindings, typography, portraits, and illustrations. The decorative volume has especially strong visual appeal with its ornate Victorian-style cover, while the green cloth volume has a more traditional 19th-century binding.

These would appeal to collectors of Victorian literature, antique poetry, Longfellow, decorative bindings, 19th-century books, or historic library collections.

Both books show substantial age and use. Expect foxing, toning, staining, exterior wear, and possible looseness consistent with antique books. Photos show the exact copies included.
