Three Volumes. Stated First Complete Edition. UK first editions, first impressions. These are publisher's file copies purchased indirectly from publisher's archive.
WRAPPERS : The wrappers on these copies are complete and unclipped. Each wrapper is lightly soiled and darkened at the spine. Each shows light wear to the edges - there is a small chip out of the lower edge of the front panel on volume 1.
BOOKS : The books are tight. The boards are clean. One or two corners and the spine ends are slightly bruised. The head of the spine on volume 2 shows a tiny nick. The text blocks are clean. No foxing. The closed page edges are sound - the gilt top edges are bright, the leading edges are each flecked. There are no loose or dog-eared pages. The bindings are tight, the hinges are solid. There are small File Copy labels on each front pastedown. A decent set in protected wrappers. Please note that as there are three volumes in this set, postage will be more than standard.
