Condition

In the original publisher's cloth bindings. Externally, very smart. There is some minor bumping to the heads and tails of the spines and to the extremities. There are some light marks to the boards. The hinges are slightly strained but firm. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean with the odd spot.

Very Good
