379 THE CORNHILL MAGAZINE. 1860-83.

47 vols. complete. 8vo. Uniform cont., half calf, with marbled

bds. Includes the first 47 volumes of this seminal victorian

literary magazine. Amongst its contributors whose work

appeared here for the first time in print were such Victorian

literary gliterati as, Thomas Hardy, George Eliot, Henry

James, Anthony Trollope, Elizabeth Gaskell, Wilkie Collins and

Tennyson. Not surprising when one considers its first editor

was William Makepeace Thackeray. Scarce in a complete

unbroken run, and one in such good condition.
