Condition:  Minor cover and spine wear noted especially around the edges of each volume.  This set has been well loved on the outside, but the inside is clean - I noted no writing, torn or missing pages throughout these volumes.  This set contains book plates on volumes 2-10 have bookplates on the inside covers as shown in the photos.  Volumes 1, 12, 13 & 14 have had those bookplates removed & there are tape marks where the plates once were.  Volumes 11, 15 & 16 have minor damage to the inside covers where the bookplates were removed.  Please see all photos for the best visual representation of these books.

This is an amazing book set - from the inside covers to the illustrations and stories...each volume is filled with goodness.  A wonderful set not only for decor but also for reading with your children or grandchildren.  Hours upon hours of reading.  Please note since this is a 16-volume set, the weight is about 33 pounds when packaged for shipping.
