All ten fold to same measurements, and internal evidence confirms that these compose a complete set (for this particular First Week) Hudnut course.

The "First Week First Day" part has several splash stains, and the envelope, which fits them all perfectly, is misfolded with short tears- sound, o/w clean, absolutely unmarked. Densely printed instructions with sketch illustrations in black on pink stock. Sample from topics list: "pummelling...wringing. Putting things in closets. Rocking chair. Round shoulder
