Original red cloth on boards. Limited edition. Library gift bookplate and discard stamp in each, but no card or envelope. No writing or damage. Top edges gilt. If you haven't read Surtees yet, you've got some chuckles coming. Perhaps a few belly laughs ! I was delighted to get 8 matching volumes of the 10-volume set, but since they are so popular I am sellling them separately. Paper labels on evenly faded spines. Volume II has light bubbling to top cover. 769 pp. in total. Heavy set will need extra postage..
