First Edition. 17 individual issues in original staple-bound, printed wrappers (Reports for 1987-88, 1995-96, and 1997-1999 are combined in single volumes). Occasional mild sunning to spines, still a uniformly Fine set in the original wrappers. Four issues (1979, 1980, 1983, and 1987-88) are signed by Fowles on front cover; included with the run is a signed copy of Fowles' "Medieval Lyme Regis" (1984), published on the occasion of the seventh centenary of Lyme Regis' charter. After 1988, the principal author changes to Liz-Anne Bowden, with Fowles contributing occasional articles in his role as "Honorary Archivist." This is the full run of Museum Reports issued during the years in which Fowles made contributions, either as Honorary Curator (during which period he was responsible for the entirety of the contents) or Honorary Archivist (when he contributed occasional "Notes" to accompany Liz-Anne Bowden's reports); or his final appearance in the Report for the year 2000, to which he contributes only a short Foreword. Fowles suffered a stroke in 1988, at which time he stepped down as Curator. Publication of the report continued through 2006. Individual issues from the early and middle period are generally available in the marketplace, but later issues are scarce and the full run is difficult to assemble. Signed.
