About the Item

A fabulous collection of thirty (30) volumes by German playwright and poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, printed in 1922. This set of Goethe’s Werkes is clothbound with gold lettering, the once Kelly green covers faded to pistachio on the spines. Inside, the pages are in remarkable condition for the age with the text still legible (better yet if one is fluent in German and can decipher the ornate font the works are printed in). Make sure to view the detailed images. Sold as a set only. Individually each book measures: 6 ⅞” H x 5” W x ¾” to 1 ⅛” D
