In very good condition with volumes showing minor shelf wear, a faint stain to the upper corner of back cover of volume 6, a small chip to the top edge of the back end paper of volume 5, faint stain to outer edges of pages 257-270 of volume 5 which looks like it could be some bleed when the page edges were painted red.
