Three volume hardcover set in dust jackets. The jackets have pieces out of them and show soiling. Bindings feel a bit loose but holding.

Uncommon "The Sanskrit is in Devanagari script throughout. Major words are given citations and brief quotations from Sanskrit literature: quotations are in Sanskrit only. English glosses are based more firmly on literature, with fewer direct borrowings from traditional lexicography, than is the case with Monier-Williams's dictionary".
