Condition
In the original publisher's cloth bindings. Externally, very smart. There is some bumping to the heads and tails of the spine and very minor bumping to the extremities. The spines are slightly worn. The hinges of Volume II are starting but firm. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean with some slight spotting to the endpapers.
Very Good
