Rare antique Hamlet book by William Shakespeare

$200.00

Beautiful antique Hamlet book by William Shakespeare. This book has a lovely and rare brownish/olive and gold decorative cover and spine by Henry Altemus. 

Hamlet, written around 1600, is a tragedy that explores themes of friendship, madness, and revenge. Set in Denmark, the play depicts Prince Hamlet and his attempts to exact revenge against his uncle, Claudius, who has murdered Hamlet's father in order to seize his throne and marry Hamlet's mother.

There is no publication date, but this was likely published in the late 1800s/early 1900s. Cover and pages have some wear and discoloration due to age, but overall good condition. Book measures about 6.5" x 4.25". Please note that photos may appear brighter than actual book.
