About this Item

*** IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE UK POTAGE IS TWICE THE PRIORITY MAIL RATE BECAUSE OF THE WEIGHT OF THESE BOOKS AND I NEED TO TRACK AND INSURE THEM. DO NOT BUY THIS SET IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO PAY THE EXTRA SHIPPING WHEN I REQUEST IT BECAUSE I WILL REFUSE YOUR ORDER AND I WILL NOT TRADE WITH YOU AGAIN. *** This is a six volume UK hardcover set of this series published in 1822. The photos show the condition better than I can describe, however overall I am grading as Good. I can only post five photos so I have deliberately taken pictures that is typical of ALL six volumes - particularly the toning / foxing to the pages, The books ALL have a straight spine and sharp corners, but EACH has worn spine ends that are chipped or scuffed or have pieces missing. The text block of EACH book is tight and there is heavy toning to the page edges of ALL books. The end papers are marbled pattern but the title page of EACH book is heavily toned with impressions from the illustration opposite. The text throughout is clean on the whole but foxing is present in places, but only occasionally. A previous owner has neatly signed her name in each book, and dated 1827. The title page states place of publication London in 1822. A good, solid set overall. Seller Inventory # 015695
