Rudyard Kipling, Vol. I Collection (Likely 'Soldiers Three' and Other Stories)

This item is a historical hardcover book, volume one of a collection of works by Rudyard Kipling. The spine is a dark, possibly forest or hunter green, and features raised bands that divide the surface into decorative panels, a common characteristic of late 19th to early 20th-century bindings. The title 'RUDYARD KIPLING' is debossed and gilded in a clear sans-serif font at the top of the spine, followed by 'VOL. I.' below it. Further down, the individual story titles 'SOLDIERS THREE', 'IN BLACK AND WHITE', 'THE STORY OF THE GADSBYS', 'THE PHANTOM 'RICKSHAW', and 'WEE WILLIE WINKE' are similarly gilded, indicating the contents of this specific volume. Between these text blocks are decorative elements, possibly vine or floral motifs, debossed into the cover material, which appears to be cloth, likely buckram or a similar fabric, designed to mimic leather. The craftsmanship suggests a publisher's binding, rather than a custom bind. Condition issues are visible, particularly at the top and bottom edges of the spine and corners, where the fabric shows significant fraying, scuffing, and loss, exposing the boards underneath. The gilt lettering, while mostly intact, shows some minor wear. The overall patina suggests considerable age and use. The book's style period is consistent with late Victorian or early Edwardian era publications, likely dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. The sturdy construction, despite the wear, indicates a quality printing intended for a considerable lifespan.
