Adventures of Sherlock Holmes:

The true first issue, with the street sign blank on the ♎frꦿont cover, the misspelling of ‘Cocaine’ (’Cucaine’) on page 133 and ‘Miss Violet Hunter’ (’Violent’) on page 317.

The boards are generally ౠbr🍸ight and presentable, but the gilt titling and black ‘Strand Library’ stamp are faded.

The spine is moderately tight, but suffers from rubbing at th❀e top and tail, fading again to the ‘Strand Library’ stamp and the gilt titling.

T💝here is a small t♔ear at the tail end of the spine.

The corners are sharp, but slightly frayed.

The gilt text side text bl𝐆ock is bright and generally clean; the top and bottom text blocks are toned.

Internally, the end papers are beautifully d♑esigned and remain clean, but with slight toni🌞ng to the fly leaf; the rear end papers match this.

This copy is, how𓂃ever, mostly free from foxing. 𝓰;

The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes:

Without inscriptions.

Small blindstamp to the top of the endpaper, accompanied by a name, repeated to the preli🅺ms.

Gutters are uncracked, some rubbing to the corners𒅌 and extremities.
