[SC: 30.93], POPE, Alexander. THE WORKS OF ALEXANDER POPE, ESQ; IN SIX VOLUMES, COMPLETE. With his last corrections, additions, and improvements; together with all his notes. London: [s.n.], 1772. Twelve engraved plates (numbered I-XII) in volumes 1-3. The first plate, the frontispiece to Volume 1, is a portrait of Pope. There are no plates in volumes 4-6. There is a general title-page for the set in Volume 1 only that is followed by a special title-page; all other volumes only have special title-pages, too. These indicate the volume number and content of each volume: 1. Juvenile poems, translations and imitations; 2. Satires, Essay on man, Moral essays, and miscellaneous pieces in verse; 3. The Dunciad; 4. All his miscellanies in prose, and part of his letters; 5. Letters to and from Mr. Pope; 6. The last of his letters, and will. This set is complete as issued, but it does not include Pope's translations of Homer. Six 12mo. volumes, 16.5 x 9.8 cm., in attractive, contemporary, full leather bindings with gilt-decorated spines in six compartments, each with a red morocco title label. Bindings show some occasional, light, superficial wear, and boards are slightly bowed. Specifically, the lower joint of volume 2 is just starting, and volumes 4 and 5 each have a small nick at the heel. Nevertheless, the volumes are all sound and in very good condition overall, and make an attractive set. The text is quite clean and very good despite some closed tears in a few volumes. A handsome eighteenth-century set in very good condition. (ESTC 5454).<
