VERY GOOD, Near Mint condition with general signs of usage wear. Fully intact hinges are all strongly attached, but some minor starting at extremities, as shown in the pictures, all very strongly and fully attached. No writing but for name on front pastedown. Printed on high quality paper and well laid out, minimal to no foxing, there are edge stains, as shown in some of the pictures, but set is not musty at all. This is an exceptional set!
