15 volumes of 16-volume set; missing Volume VI (Captain Singleton). Limited edition of 1000, of which this is #750. All volumes are solidly bound, with a little weakness at front hinge on Volume I only. Pages are unmarked, and only slightly aged. Each volume has frontispiece with protective tissue sheet (wrinkled on Volume I) , and several books have an additional illustration, equally protected. Despite tissue page, illustrations have stained the facing title page a little. Ex-libris plates on 13 volumes. Volume VIII has some water damage at top -- affecting appearance, but not readability, but also blanching the spine cover. Gilt top edge, and deckled bottom and fore-edges. Maroon cloth covers with pastedown spine titles. Cloth has minor wear to corners and spine tips, and with occasional scratches. Spines are all sun-faded and title papers are all tanned and chipped (especially Volume XIV). No dustjackets at issue. Seller Inventory # 32656
