Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (Easton Press Collector’s Edition, 1996, Full Leather)

Easton Press Collector’s Edition of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, issued in 1996 in full red leather with extensive gilt decoration. This handsome edition features raised spine bands, black-and-gold spine labels, gilt page edges, decorative gilt borders, sewn binding, acid-neutral archival paper, and illustrations by C. E. and H. M. Brock. The copyright page confirms the special contents of this Easton Press edition were copyrighted in 1996 and that the Collector’s Edition was published exclusively for Easton Press patrons.

This copy is in exceptionally clean condition with a virgin binding, showing no indication that the book has been fully opened or read. The leather remains bright and supple, the gilt decoration is strong, and the page edges retain a rich, reflective gold finish. Overall presentation is Fine to Very Fine, making this a particularly attractive example for an Austen or Easton Press collection.
