Description
New York: The Century Co, 1889. First edition, 6 volumes in the original 24 parts, large 4to, pp. [2], xviii, 7046, [30] (continuous pagination); text in triple column; numerous (approximately 6000) illustrations throughout the text; light rubbing and wear all around, but generally a very good set in original decorative brown cloth. "In 1882 Charles Annandale greatly enlarged Ogilvie's dictionary (The Imperial Dictionary, 1850) which came to be the basis for The Century, an American work modeled after the OED. William Dwight Whitney, a well-known Sanskrit scholar and linguist (and professor of comparative philology and Sanskrit at Yale) was the editor... Beautifully printed at the DeVinne Press, it is surely one of the handsomest dictionaries ever made" (Landau, Dictionaries: The Art and Craft of Lexicography, p. 72). Kennedy 6584; O'Neill C-20; Vancil, p. 48.
