Volume I has two clean tears…to the front cover; and, pages 535-550 have been torn and almost shredded in the center of the pages. Volume 12 has two 1" splits to the rear gutter. Volume 13 has one 1" x 3" tear to the lower rear cover, and one 1" x 1/2" tear to the top of the rear cover. These flaws are such that the shelf appearance of the set is unencumbered.
