The Life of Samuel Johnson by James Boswell - Two volumes, 3/4 leather, published by George Bayntun in 1925.

An absolutely gorgeous set I recently purchased. I only have one other example in my library, but I absolutely love when the publication date is included on the spine.

I've wanted a home library for as long as I can remember. Earlier this year, I was able to build one.

Currently sitting at ~800 volumes. I collect first editions, first printings as much as I can. Also serves as a listening room. Second picture is some of my 1800s leather bound sets on a table in the entryway. Third picture is the shelf in the bedroom.
