Rare antique Tales from Shakespeare book by Charles & Mary Lamb with a few black and white illustrations within. This book has a beautiful dark red and gold cover design from Henry Altemus with an ocean scene pictured.
The book includes such tales as Romeo and Juliet, Othello, Macbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Twelfth Night, The Winter's Tale, and more. This would be such a beautiful gift for a book collector or someone who loves Shakespeare.
There is no date printed in this book, but there is an inscription from 1904. There is wear/scuffing/bumping and discoloration on the cover, spine, and pages due to age, but otherwise this book is in pretty good condition. Book measures about 6.25" x 4.25". Please note that photos may appear brighter than actual book.
