    This book is one of my collection of antiques books. Leather covers with gild page edges. It is the complete work of Alfred Tennyson poems, the first poem is dedicated to Queen Victoria. The illustrations are beautiful, you can see the pages have the weigh marks of the plates.
    Tennyson was born in 1809 and die in 1892. I believe this book is the first printed in America. The book is in very good condition, minor wear on the edges of the leather covers, the inside pages all are excellent.
