T are approximately 60 black white illustrations, primarily in The Ancient Mariner by Coleridge; The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayam by Fitz Gerald; Bab Ballads by W.S. Gilbert. 2,928 immaculate pages aged to an ivory color though typically the title page and the last page are deeply yellowed or lightly browned to match the verso of the leattte cover that has transferred its verso color to the page -- nothing compromised. Books are in Near Fine to Fine condition. Red embossed floral border around the embossed title on dimpled faux Morocco leather "leattte". The embossed title is on the front covers and on the spine. These were mail order items. Edition title was changed from Little Leather Library to Little Luxart Library as the publisher, Robert Haas, felt the term "leather" was misleading in Little Leather Library.
