Of Steel Engravings alone there are 120, after drawings by Stanfield, Roberts, Sir David Wilkie, Leitch, Creswick, McCulloch, and other distinguished Artists. Of Engravings on Wood there are nearly 2,000, all of them engraved with scrupulous regard to accuracy of drawing and beauty of finish. Illustrated with about 2,000 engravings."

Some light minor rubbing and scuffing, and some wear to the edges of the marbled paper boards, else a near fine set. The text blocks are fine and bright with only the occasional light offset from an engraving to the facing page. Loosely laid in to volume one is the Adam and Charles Black List of Publications for March, 1852, which lists this title on the final page. The publisher, Robert Cadell, died in 1849 and A&C Black bought his rights to the Scott publications in 1851 and became the distributor for the existing stock of this set. According to the List, "The cost of this Edition exceeded £40,000. Nine-tenths of the impression have been already sold; it is not stereotyped, and there is no intention on the part of the Proprietors to reprint it."
