Q: I am very interested in obtaining more information on this book. The copyright date is 1899. I did not find this book front format in your listed designs. Thank you very much.

A: This book is part of the Beauxarts Series. This publisher’s series of reprints was printed between 1897 and 1902. During this time frame there were four different covers. Your cover was published between 1899 and 1901. I have seen five different colors with this decorative pattern.

As with all of this series’ books, it is a reprint. Nonetheless, many Dickens’ collectors are interested in these decorative books. Thus, the value would be quite unpredictable.
