Treasure Island
Illustrated edition published by Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York, 1905.
This is an early 20th-century illustrated Scribner edition of Treasure Island, one of Stevenson’s most enduring adventure novels. The book features period illustrations and was produced during a time when Scribner issued many high-quality trade editions intended for home libraries rather than limited or deluxe press runs.
Important note on edition:
This is not a first edition (the true first was published in 1883), but it is an early Scribner illustrated edition, now over 120 years old.
Condition
Good to Very Good, age-consistent
Original cloth binding present with noticeable surface wear and rubbing
Spine appears worn at edges
Interior pages show toning and age-related discoloration
Illustrations present
No visible modern repairs
Binding intact but clearly handled
This is a solid, honest copy, valued for age and presentation rather than rarity.
