3 OSCAR WILDE Modern Library PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY / PLAYS/ POEMS & FAIRY TALES

Description: This lot consists of three collectible Modern Library hardbacks, each with a different title by Oscar Wilde, as described below: THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY. With gray boards and green titling, the binding measures 5" x 7.25" (as do all three). The clean and unmarked text includes "DE PROFUNDIS" and consumes 357 pages. The latest copyright cites that of the Introduction from 1926. The unclipped dustjacket remains in very good condition for the vintage, with minor shelfwear including light sun to the spine and a small closed tear. THE PLAYS OF OSCAR WILDE. With gray boards and violet titling, the text runs for over 400 pages and has marking in the last play offered, with an example of the offense showing in the last frame of our gallery. No copyright date given, but our online research indicates issuance in 1947. The dustjacket rates at best fair, with losses, sun and marking. THE POEMS AND FAIRY TALES OF OSCAR WILDE. Binding in very good condition for vintage. In reddish boards with black titling, the clean and unmarked text runs for nearly 500 pages. No copyright given, but our online research indicates issuance in 1950. No dustjacket. We'll repeat the general description:Three sound vintage bindings from Modern Library, two with dustjackets. Dorian Gray dustjacket very good but Plays grades merely fair with losses and marking on the front panel. Our gallery makes a genuine attempt to communicate the condition and Contents, with both the exterior and the underside of the extant dustjackets displayed.
