Vanity Fair Thackeray 1924 Dodd Mead Illustrated Charles Crombie Antique HC For Sale

A beautifully illustrated 1924 antique edition of William Makepeace Thackeray\'s classic satire Vanity Fair, featuring 16 full-color plates by Charles Crombie. Published by Dodd, Mead and Company of New York, this blue cloth hardcover is a striking addition to any classic-literature or antiquarian book collection — over 100 years old and still in Fine condition.

This copy stands out for its condition: tight binding, clean unmarked pages, and three vivid, well-preserved Crombie color plates that most surviving 100-year-old copies have lost their crispness on. It\'s a decorative, display-ready edition of one of the great Victorian novels — ideal for a collector\'s shelf or as a gift for a literature lover.

We disclose everything: light fraying at the spine head, light foxing on the endpapers, and a small pencil bookseller\'s code on the front endpaper — all cosmetic, none affecting the text, binding, or the reading/display experience.
