While all volumes are clean and unmarked there is a tendency for verso last page and initial series t.p. to be affected by light tanning, presumably this is common to all copies.

Only 5 volumes listed individually at time of cataloguing in various conditions. This full set was always in the same family until acquired by seller. 14 cm x 20 cm
