Very good overall condition, noting not exhaustively: the leather of the covers shows small scattered nicks, minor bumps, without severity. The pages, although uncut, are in very good condition. There may still be some pencil inscriptions on certain pages, to be erased, without severity (mainly on volume VI). There are a few stains on the gutter of volume V and on the original cover of volume IV. The first few pages of volume II are printed upside down. There is a small pen inscription on the back of the original cover of volume VI. A beautiful analytical set. It is possible that the books have additional minor flaws that we have not noted, and therefore could not objectively observe at the time of writing this listing (see photos).
