72 issues, each c. 30 pages. Text in English. Profusely illustrated throughout, with endless full page images, many tinted, some fine chromolithographed plates as well.Â
Publisher's pictorial paper wrappers. All 72 separately issued parts, which comprise the entire work. Rare to find complete inthis format.
Set is physically old and shows some signs of handling and time. Set is not new or in "new" condition.
Bindings gently age worn, a few front or rear covers detached, overall mostly light or inoffensive signs of handling and time but nothing severe or unsightly, set remains attractive.
Paper is gently toned, still clean, tight, sound internally. Given the rarity and near impossibility of completing a new set today, the condition is entirely acceptable and pleasing.
Still attractive on the shelf. The set displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive.Â
Please review photos for more detail showing how this book survives. The asking price reflects the condition based on our examination and 35+ years full time exposure to antiquarian books, maps and printed ephemera of all types and genres. Flaws seen and/ or described have been taken into account.
