A Beautiful Set of 2 of "Les Malheurs de l'Inconstance, ou Lettres de la Marquise de Sycé, et du Comte de Mirbelle," published in 1772. This work is authored by Jean Dorat, a prominent figure of the 18th century. First Edition of "Les Malheurs de l'Inconstance," published in Amsterdam and Paris in 1772 by the publisher Delalain. The presence of original engravings and the specific publication details suggest its early printing. First editions from this period, especially those by notable authors like Jean Dorat, tend to hold significant value, particularly among collectors of antique literature.

The condition of the books shows significant wear and tear, including worn covers, frayed edges, and some foxing on the pages. This can affect their value, but given their age and potential rarity, they still hold historical and collectible significance.

Appraised at Fair Market Value.
