by Daniel Defoe, with Illustrations by Gordon Browne

ANTIQUE (from the late 1800’s to early 1900's) ROBINSON CRUSOE Illustrated Hardcover Book

ANTIQUE Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe Illustrated Hardcover Book (1883 - 1937)

Vintage Hardback edition of Daniel Defoe’s “Robinson Crusoe”

  • Title: “The Life and Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe, of York, Mariner”
  • Author: Daniel Defoe
  • Illustrator: Gordon Browne
  • Publisher: A.L. Burt, New York

The cover is primarily dark green with some wear visible on the edges and spine, which suggests it may be an older or well-used edition. The spine of the book has gold lettering that reads “ROBINSON CRUSOE” at the top and “DEFOE” at the bottom. There are also some decorative elements or patterns on the spine, but they are partially obscured due to wear.

The shown inside page shows an illustration of a scene from the story, a person sitting under a makeshift shelter on a deserted landscape. Given the style of the illustration and the typography, the book is obviously an older edition. Additionally, the A.L. Burt Company, which published this edition of “Robinson Crusoe,” was an American book publishing house that operated from 1883 until 1937 1. It was founded by Albert Levi Burt and began by reprinting home reference works before expanding into the field of children’s books1.

Given this information, this book was likely published sometime between 1883 and 1937.
