About This Item

Chicago: Lakeside Press, 1903 to 2019. The first 26 volumes (which includes the 1915 reprint of The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin) of this complete set are in very good+ to near fine condition and are all bound in dark green cloth covered boards. None of the dark green volumes have prior owner's names or markings in them. The 25 volumes bound in red are all in at least very good+ condition or better and none of them have any prior ownership markings of any kind. All 25 volumes of the "blues" are in fine condition; although four of the years (1974-1977) have a prior owner's raised, embossed seal on the front end pages. All of the "browns" are in fine condition; however, two volumes (1978 and 1980) have a prior owner's raised, embossed seal on the front end pages; and, 1979 has the ghost of a removed book plate from the front paste down. The last seven volumes of the "browns" are still within the publisher's original shrink wrap. The final 25 volumes in the teal cloth binding are all fine and all are still contained in the publisher's shrink wrap. This is a remarkable collection as it is a complete run of the Classics and each of the volumes are in such attractive, collectible condition.
