Shakespeare, William. The Works of William Shakespeare. The Text Revised by the Rev. Alexander Dyce. In Nine Volumes. Chapman and Hall, London, 1866.

Price: US$800.00 + shipping

Description: Second Edition. 9 vols. Extensively revised by Dyce for this edition; in his preface, he virtually disavows the first edition of 1857 in which he retained readings of a "much more doubtful character," influenced as he writes, "perhaps unconsciously, by the example of Malone and of some later editors". Original pebbled brown cloth, spine titles gilt. Small tear at spine head of vol. I, upper joint starting on vol. VII, otherwise a very good set
