I’m too overworked and have too many of these volumes to take individual pictures of these volumes. If you are familiar with the CLASSICS OF MEDICINE LIBRAY (and related Classics of…Libraries) by GRYPHON EDITIONS then you already know the exquisite quality of these books: full fine leather binding, richly gilt covers and spines, marbled or silk end papers, gilt page edges, silk page marker, highest quality paper and printing techniques, etc. Some of these books also come with the letter from Classics of Medicine Library describing the edition, but not all have the letter. Please inquire before purchasing if you have special requests for information. Pictures are for illustration of the general properties of the Classics of Medicine Library and are not meant to accurately depict the size or color or design of any specific book on the list.
I am selling these books individually. Purchase one book and send a note with which one you would like. I will send that book to you, update the list, and relist the remainder. If you would like more than one book on the list, then purchase one and tell me the other titles you would like. I will make a special ebay listing just for you with your selected volumes.
