Stunning set of 24 volumes dedicated to the works of the famous writer Jules Verne, published by Éditions Famot.
A magnificent collection that will appeal to lovers of classic literature, fans of adventure novels, bibliophiles, and collectors of fine bindings.
An elegant and refined collection
This lot immediately stands out with its sumptuous red bindings, richly decorated with gold motifs, giving each volume a particularly prestigious look.
