Condition Report

This two-volume set is half-leather bound with marble-effect endpapers and page edges. Both volumes show light edge wear, particularly around the raised bands on the spines. Volume 1 exhibits light tanning, but both volumes have clean pages and firm bindings. There’s foxing on the page edges. Overall, the set is in good to very good condition, indicative of careful historical preservation.
