An eleven volume set complete with a 12th supplementary volume. All 12 volumes uniformly bound in dark red cloth covered hardback bindings, lettered in gilt at the spines. An ex-lib set but showing minimal such markings. Books are firm and square with strong joints, no bumps, no scuffs. Contents are tight and clean, just evenly age-toned. Thus a very good set indeed: very well rebound in relatively modern and presentable matching hardback bindings.
