(Shelton), (First Edition Library), (various). In the 1980s and 1990s, the First Edition Library published more than 100 extraordinarily accurate (typos included) fascimiles of some of the great books of the 19th and 20th centuries. Offered here (listed alphabetically by title) are 56 of these, each, unless otherwise noted, fine in a fine dust jacket (if issued with a jacket), and with the FEL's added slipcase. In addition, FEL provided a card with each, which typically included the information about the original publication date; size of the first printing, when known; background of the book; issue points of the first edition; and a mini-essay on the book and its audience; so that the books are not only facsimiles but also reference works: all but five of those cards are present.
