This set is comprised of the first ten volumes: three octavo-size volumes (the third with a CD in a pocket at the rear pastedown), and seven elephant folio-size volumes (these also with a CD) numbered "IX 1" through "IX 10". The publishers has issued subsequent volumes, as of this writing the set encompasses fourteen volumes.

___CONDITION: The set is fine overall, with clean boards, straight corners without rubbing, strong, square text blocks with solid hinges, the interiors are clean and bright, and the set is entirely free of prior owner markings; the few exceptions we noted to this grading are a very small pinhole to the cloth near the head of the spine in Vol. 6, a few very light, stray marks to the cloth binding on Vols. 5 and 9, some light bumping to the head of the spines of several volumes, and very ligh indentations to the board edges of a few volumes (these last two likely a result of the weight of the volumes).
___POSTAGE: Please note that this set is extremely large and heavy and additional postage will apply; please inquire for details.
