SCOTT, Sir Walter. Ivanhoe. With Introductory Essay and Notes by Andrew Lang. Twelve Illustrations [by Adolphe Lalauze]. London: Macmillan and Co., Limited, 1906.  

Format & Binding: Octavo. Bound in period full tan calf, spine in compartments with raised bands, gilt floral tooling, and contrasting dark brown morocco title label. Blind- and gilt-rolled borders to boards, comb-marbled endpapers.  

Illustrations: Complete with all 12 monochrome plates after original etchings by French artist Adolphe Lalauze, including the frontispiece (Rebecca and the Templar), plus title-page vignette of Abbotsford.  

Condition: Good. Full calf binding shows typical age-related rubbing and scuffing to boards, wear along the joints, and chipping/loss to the headcap of the spine. Inner hinges remain sound with vibrant marbled endpapers. Internally complete and tight; occasional marginal browning and offset staining to text leaves adjacent to the coated plates (e.g., p. 208), otherwise clean and unmarked.
