Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. A perfectly serviceable set of a dozen (12) reference copies from a leader publisher of science and education in the mid-late 19th century and thenceforward; nothing fancy, but complete and sturdy in sum.

Some rubbings to extremities, scuffings to tips, light crackings to joints, to front hinge of one volume, some chipping to spine heads and tails, else still quite sturdy, and some feel as if they've never been opened. Not ex-library, no underlining or highlighting apparent. All top edges gilt, plentiful unexploded fore-edges up front and at rear. Lightly, uniformed toned interiors, clean and still fairly bright. Notes, bibliographies and indexes to most, quite extensive and learned.
