The Poetical Works of James Russell Lowell, Complete Edition, 1873

An 1873 “Diamond Edition” of The Poetical Works of James Russell Lowell, published by James R. Osgood & Company. This early complete edition gathers Lowell’s poetry across his career.

The compact green cloth binding features gilt decoration on the front board and spine, typical of the publisher’s elegant late-19th-century pocket formats. Light edge wear and age toning are present, but the volume remains clean and legible.

A charming small-format antique edition of one of America’s major poets.
