Item description from seller

Clean unmarked book. NOT a former library book. NO writing or highlighting. Finely bound by Riviere or similar binder. [two volumes], Vol 1 preface 16 pages, 1-284pp; vol 2 preface 8 pgs, 1-280pp. Three-quarter brown morocco, marbled cloth covers with gilt trim. Five raised bands, gilt decorations and title. Top edge gilt, marbled endpapers. ALL illustrations counted and accounted for. ISSUES ---- vol 1 - rear cover has small pieces of the marbled paper missing, the original front cover is pasted onto a blank sheet at the rear. It's possible this blank sheet was originally attached but is now loose. Also, there are old pieces of scotch tape present in the center area of the marbling. These could possibly have been removed without damaging what was underneath. There is no damage evident but someone put the tape there for some reason? Vol 2---very slight foxing on the front free end paper. Both vols have a few (perhaps 10 or so in total) where the upper corner is creased and in at least 2-3 instances, the small piece is missing--another issue that might be better left as is. The leather itself has been well cared for, perhaps in a glass case and treated on occasion. Overall a very nice set to be proud of.…
