Although there are many modern ways with new technology for painting and decorating, given the move to waterbased paints which is not as effective as the 'old' type, this is a really good set of practical DIY books with bags of useful info.

Internally end papers slight foxing, otherwise, the odd age spot but in the main clean, little wear, binding good, good colour. Seller Inventory # 002363
