Condition
In the publisher's original cloth with the original unclipped dust wrappers. Externally very smart with light damp staining to the boards to 'vol I' and 'Vol III', light marks to the spines and light bumping to the extremities. The wraps are sound with chipping, marking, sunning resulting in loss to the titles and tidemarks to the spines. Loss to the tail of the spines, lighter to 'Vol VI'. Internally firmly bound with bright and generally clean pages with the odd spot. Tipped in errata to 'Vol I' page ix and 'vol I' page 611. The odd unopened page and scattered spotting to the fore edges.
