green cloth with printed paper spine labels. According to the title 
page, "with illustrations from designs by De Neuville, Bayard, Morin, 
Valnay, and other eminent French artists." Text in English. Contents 
clean. The text block of the first volume is completely detached from 
the covers with the front hinge of the third volume badly cracked; the 
second volume with rippling to the pages caused by an old waterstain; 
Light rubbing to the covers, paper spine labels with wear affecting 
legibility in some cases. Overall a Good set. (#019935)        $450
