The first edition of the novel in vivo LN Tolstoy's War and Peace "
 

I want to evaluate in vivo the first edition of "War and Peace" in 1868 in 6 books, hard cover leather possessory that time. No loss of pages. No restored pages. Condition - good. Does not require restoration (at least in my opinion as a collector of such books).

I would like to know the current prices for such rarities.

Ps. but some how count was issued copies of the first edition. How much I know 1200 or 2400 copies. Maybe those who have heard the last few years at Sotheby's, Christie and other auctions took a similar publication in a similar condition? Thanks

Romario, read this topic, the auction house and second-hand trades conducts.

The first edition (1867-1868), according to the directory was published in 4 volumes. Apparently, you - the second edition, six-volume (1868-1869 gg), which appeared immediately after the first. They asked for a similar publication at different sites within a 10 000 euros, whether sold - do not know. Demand for rare books lower than a good painting. Order to sell expensive, have to look for the "final" the buyer.

The fact that my first edition _polnoe_ no doubts. That unfinished perhaps? A chapter from a novel published in a journal, too, considered the first edition? :) I'm sure that something is not right I collect ...

Throw the letter in the mail there, there is a good specialist in used books.

In my condition? And what sites and when they asked? Buy at around 10 euros.

Joke, sir? Funny ... So study the subject of sale. The first publication of the first edition differs?
"... 17 December 1867 came the first three volume edition of 4800 each, 17 March 1868 the first-fourth volume ..."
Compare with the dates of their publications. It is very easy to search for "guglom. Laziness?

But even here take http://rarebooks.ru/ru/fiction/rus-p....php?id23=6735 Long time hanging. Saw and deschevle - 300-350 tr proposal. "Poguglite. The road by walking. Good luck!

Yes, you are right, but the state still in exile worse, besides the new cover ...

By price or circulation and the next edition? You are not just the first one on my memory gives out this edition for the first - the temptation, the difference in the publications of less than a year. You should know this nuance, but you must find a collector! And, certainly, better than me then should know that alib.ru such publication is for 360 tr Nuances really curious by themselves. All the best.

PS If you take the difference from 10 euros to me for mediation I suppose? ;)

You upset me, and now the interest rate you want? :) "enough and so ;)
