Fast shipping! Package was protected and well secured! Book was like holding part of my heart in my hands 🥲 So grateful to be the keeper of this knowledge for this brief moment in time. Absolutely perfect and amazing value to hold this treasure which was exactly as described. I think I held it to my heart (still wrapped in the packaging) for a good while before carefully opening to see the perfect condition of the work. Absolutely amazing art that’s perfectly in tact.

What an great seller! Due to the size of my order, they broke it up into three packages, taking the time to wrap and protect each set of books in multiple ways. They arrived in pristine condition, exactly as pictured and described. Excellent value and quick shipping as well. Will definitely buy from them again. Fantastic experience!
