About This Item
Easton Press. Near Fine. 1993. Hard Cover. 10 Volume-set including index and supplement. Bound in publisher's original dark brown leather with four raised bands on the spine. Title and decorations on spine and covers in gilt with all edges in gilt and a bookmarker ribbon bound into each volume. All volumes are tight, clean and crisp. This set would be described As New if it wasn't for one minor flaw: Previous owner had his bookshelf repainted and unfortunately put back the books before the paint was completely dried, leaving minimal traces of white paint to bottom of boards of some of the volumes - only visible if the books are held upside down - otherwise the books appear unread and look New. ; 8vo .
