BERNARD SHAW -- MUSIC IN LONDON, 1890-1894 -- Four Volumes with Slipcase, 1973

Description: This lot contains a set of four hardback books and their original slipcase. The books are all bound in green cloth, with gilt spine titles, and they measure about 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". They are all dated 1973 and published in New York by Vienna House. The slipcase is about 7" wide, and has a title block on one end, which describes the set as "Bernard Shaw's Music in London, The four-volume set, 1888-1894. In the order shown in the pictures, the four volumes are: 1) "Music in London,1890-1894: Criticisms Contributed to the World, Volume I" by Bernard Shaw, 317 pages.2) Same title and author, but Volume II, 342 pages3) Same title and author, but Volume III, 332 pages4) "London Music in 1888-1889 as Heard by Cornetto di Basso (Later known as Bernard Shaw), with some Further Autobiographical Details", 439 pages. The books are all in solid and functional condition, but with handwritten marks and comments in the text and margins. This is fairly minimal - just a few scattered pages - in the three numbered volumes, but much more widespread and pervasive in the 1888-1889 book, some examples of which are shown in the last few pictures. The slipcase is unevenly faded and has some light scuffs and edge wear. International Buyers – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges. We won't under-value merchandise or mark the item as a gift on customs forms. Doing that is against U.S. and international laws. COMBINED SHIPPING: See our seller list for other interesting and unusual items, in fact bid on several and you might save on shipping and handling. If you buy multiple items, and if it's feasible and cost-effective for us to ship the items together, we will gladly consider requests to combine shipping at a reduced cost. Just e-mail us, and we can provide combined shipping cost estimates on a case-by-case basis. Depending on weight and other considerations, we typically offer full shipping rate for the first item, then 50 cents or $1.00 per item. And if you are purchasing multiple items, please make the payment as a single payment, rather than trying to pay for each item separately. Oh, and this may sound obvious, but we can't reduce the shipping charges for items on which we offer free shipping. SHIPPING COSTS: If the eBay auto-calculator is not responding, or if you think our shipping costs are too high, please contact us prior to bidding to determine your shipping options and costs. Repeat, prior to bidding, please. FEEDBACK: Because of abuses we've experienced in the past, we have totally given up on the eBay feedback system, so we neither give nor expect feedback. Please, therefore, do not contact us after the auction asking us to leave feedback. If you ever have a problem with an item you purchase from us, please contact us directly about it before giving negative feedback or seller ratings, and especially before invoking eBay's dreaded Grand Tribunal in processes like "Return Requests" or "Opening an Item Not as Described Case." No one is perfect, and we occasionally mis-describe something, or an item arrives late or gets damaged in the mail, but we are always quick to respond to a problem and set it straight in the most mutually agreeable way.
