Good vintage condition overall. Volume 2 shows heavy water damage to the cover/pages and has a compromised spine binding. The remaining 11 volumes remain structurally sound and intact with tight bindings, featuring minor cosmetic shelf wear to the orange cloth covers. Interior pages across the set are remarkably clean with vibrant illustrations, noting only a few light pencil marks and a couple of neat vintage tape repairs on minor page tears. Stored in a smoke-free environment.
