Description

This SCARCE complete leather limited edition seven volume book set from The Franklin Mint is in VERY GOOD condition with no markings inside or out and no attached bookplates on any volume. There are some tiny superficial cover imperfections to be found on these books, but nothing significant by any measure. There is pretty minimal scratching to the gilding on the text blocks. All the paper on all volumes is perfect or virtually so. All moiré end leaves on 6 of 7 volumes are virtually perfect with no fading. Only volume 1 has typical fading around the edges. I'm not sure if these books were read/used or not, but they all have solid and tight spines. All external sides of all volumes are represented in the pictures so you can make an informed purchase decision. I had to decide what to prioritize in the 24 allotted pictures slots, so I made sure to make the most of them with as many clear pictures of all volumes, and just a few designated for informational purposes. I think I've done a pretty thorough job with the listing of this set of books, but if I missed something or if you have any questions, I'll do my best to answer them. This 7 volume complete set is the definitive publication of this work. There isn't another publication of this literature that is so thoroughly and expertly crafted and presented. For a fan of the legendary Bard of Avon, there really isn't a finer collection of his works than this. This book set is part of the Franklin Library's prestigious definitive publication commemorating the 25th anniversary of Encyclopedia Britannica's "The Great Books of the Western World" series. All books in my store are clean and free of odors, dust, or dander and come from a well-ventilated building with NO smoking, vaping, pets, children, or even food and cooking. Simply put, these books are fresh, crisp, and cared for. COMBINED SHIPPING is always automatically active, and if you buy 5 or more in the same transaction, FREE SHIPPING!!

    A seller definitely worth supporting. Offering books in fine, as new condition. Photos and description accurately depict what you receive. Purchased three books; would not hesitate to purchase more in the future. Appreciated and welcome additions to my collection. Packed extremely well. Fast shipping. Thanks for offering a great selection of books and a pleasant, trouble free experience.

    I have already reviewed this seller, but I will say again, this seller communicates very well during the purchase process. Book shipped with great care and arrived very quickly. I spent a lot on this book and others, but they are exactly as promised and in perfect or near perfect condition. Wonderful experience! Would buy from this seller again!

    Made an offer, and it was excepted right away! Very good value at full price, but even better with the accepted offer and VERY LOW SHIPPING COST! Wasn't expecting it until next week, but the seller packed, labeled, and shipped on the same day as purchase so it came today! AS DESCRIBED! Packing was perfect. Perfect A+ transaction and seller.
