A bit about The Folio SocietyThe Folio Society is a privately owned London-based publisher and was founded in 1947.The Folio Society produces high-quality illustrated hardback editions of classic fiction and non-fiction books. Each Folio edition features specially designed bindings and includes artist-commissioned illustrations (most often in fiction titles) or researched artworks and photographs (in non-fiction titles). Most editions come with their own slipcase. The firm's goal was to produce "editions of the world's great literature, in a format worthy of the contents, at a price within the reach of everyman."The society issued its first three titles in 1947. In 1971 The Folio Society was incorporated and purchased by John Letts and Halfdan Lynner. Under their ownership, The Folio Society published the collected novels of Dickens, Trollope, Hardy, Elizabeth Gaskell and Conrad. Lord Gavron has been owner and chairman of The Folio Society since 1982. Please check out my other items! Naturally, I am happy to combine postage costs wherever possible.Thanks for looking!
