BYRON, LORD GEORGE GORDON NOEL. Werner, A Tragedy. 8vo, original plain brown wrappers, cocked, edges curled, spine ends just slightly rubbed with
BYRON, LORD GEORGE GORDON NOEL. Werner, A Tragedy. 8vo, original plain brown wrappers, cocked, edges curled, spine ends just slightly rubbed with minor loss, the number 29 is penned on front cover in contemporary hand; bottom outer corners of first two signatures curled; custom chemise and 1/2 morocco gilt slipcase, scuffed. London: John Murray, 1823
- Notes: first edition, first issue without "the end" printed on page 188. As the work was originally intended to include Heaven and Earth, a Drama as stated in the advertisements bound in, the confused printer assumed it was incomplete and left off the concluding imprint. The works were printed separately, and the second edition contained "the end," the imprint, and the removal of the tentative advertisement. A nice copy, scarce in first state, first binding, of Byron's famous dramatic work. Wise I, 163.
