From the library of Archbishop Maurice Baudoux (1902-1988), Archdiocese of St. Boniface, the books contain minimal library markings: only a decorative crest stamp (sometimes), a date stamp (the books were added to the library in 1977 and 1978), and some written cataloging numbers (usually in pencil). Examples of these can be seen in the listing images. With the exception of these markings of provenance, and a small amount of very light pencil notation in some of the books, any and all flaws are pictured—mainly general shelfwear and creasing, though two books have some small stains. Please see images and do not hesitate to ask for additional photos. Apart from pictured flaws, the texts are otherwise in Near Fine condition.
