Set is complete.

This set is highly photogenic.

I tried showing details of the extremity abrasions and shelf wear.

This set has more wear than shown in the pictures.


These display well on a bookcase.


Some extremity damage. Set is over 100 years old.



If condition is critical, I have sets in better condition.

This set has some condition flaws but still displays well as a complete antiquarian set.




Please be comfortable with the condition before purchasing this set.

Customer satisfaction is important to me.

This is a large set and returns are a big deal.

Please be comfortable with the condition before purchasing this set.




Each volume will be well protected for shipping via Priority Mail in 5 flat rate boxes. This costs approximately $21.50 per box = over $100. I'm losing money on postage.


International Mail costs $100-$110 per Priority Mail flat rate box, x 5 boxes = $550.
