The original First Folio is one of the most important books in English literary history, preserving plays that might otherwise have been lost, including Macbeth, Twelfth Night and The Tempest. A facsimile allows readers to experience the typography, spelling and layout of the seventeenth-century edition while providing an invaluable connection to the earliest printed form of Shakespeare's complete dramatic achievement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn good overall condition.
