    Description

    First Edition, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding

    The first editions. 

    A five volume set, featuring volumes from 1922, 1924, 1925, 1926 and 1927. 

    This set features two collections of stories from a variety of talented authors such as the celebrated P. G. Wodehouse with a story about his popular character 'Jeeves'. The '1926' collection is notable for its inclusion of Evelyn Waugh's first ever commercial publication, 'The Balance', a short story written in a experimental modernist style.
