Dear Mr. Veitch,
 
That is clearly a custom binding, not the publisher's. The owner had both volumes bound into one including the original paper covers.

Subject: [NABOKV-L] Olympia Press, Paris, 1955, two volumes--bound together

Dear All, 

I have found the following for sale: 

Lolita: 1ST EDITION, 1st PRINTING

Olympia Press, Paris, 1955, two volumes--bound together. 

Can anyone confirm that there was a printing of both volumes together? I hadn't heard of one until now and am concerned that it is not genuine. 

Many thanks, 
James Veitch
