MARSHALL, Alfred (1842-1924). Principles of Economics. London and New York: Macmillan & Co, 1890. Volume I only [all published], 8°. Half-title, diagrams, 2pp. of advertisements at the end (very light marginal browning). Original publisher's cloth, flat spine ruled and lettered in gilt (spine very rubbed and bumped, cloth partly split along joints, cloth at foot of spine torn away, a few scuff marks on covers), in a morocco-backed box. Provenance: 'H.J. Bards Esq, Jan. 9, 1891 for J.W.B., J.A.B & C.C.B.B.' (inscription on half-title) -- some occasional underlining in pencil.
FIRST EDITION, SCARCE. Schumpeter describes Marshall's work as 'the classical achievement of the period, that is, the work that embodies more perfectly than any other, the classical situation that emerged around 1900. I believe that Lord Keynes meant to express a similar evaluation when he listed the publication of the Principles as the first of three events in 1890 from which the "modern age of British economists" is to be dated', Schumpeter, p.834. Einaudi 3736.
