Orig. drab boards, somewhat soiled and extremities rubbed. Remnants of paper labels on spines. The first edition. The set is usually

4 volumes bound in 2. It is unusual to find the 4 individual volumes, here in their original state, as published.

I have created a Starter Pack. I tried to design it to appeal to general used and independent bookstores, but with a leaning towards rare and collectible books. Book collectors in general may find it inviting, though. So, please do send it to anyone who fits those criteria: go.bsky.app/DLyksnY
