Encyclopaedia Britannica 11th Edition — Complete 29-Volume Set in Mahogany Case

The Edition Collectors Actually Want.

The Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica — published 1910–1911 — is widely regarded as the greatest reference work ever compiled in the English language. Scholars, writers, and collectors have sought it out for over a century. This is a complete 29-volume set, housed in its original mahogany bookcase. The kind of thing that commands a room and starts a conversation.

The volumes show honest wear consistent with age — this is a working antique, not a display prop. The mahogany case is sturdy and in good condition.
