Ten matching volumes (complete). Arnheim Edition. Mixed set: 9 volumes are #236 from a limited edition of 300; Vol. 4 which matches the others is #485 of a limited edition of 500. Original half vellum over light blue paper-covered boards with gilt medallion of a raven on the front, gilt lettering and design on the spine and gilt vertical rules on front and back. TEG, other edges untrimmed. Frontispiece preceding series title pages. All plates protected by tissue guards with printed captions. Coburn's numerous plates and other illustrations throughout the text are exceptional. Vellum is foxed on all volumes. Volume 1's rear board has a circular mar, three tiny white specks and the paper is slightly folded back from the vellum for about an inch. There is a light water stain on the bottom corner through the entire text block that does not affect the text. Paper loss about 1/2" from the top corner of Vol. 4. Vol. 10 is rubbed and scraped on the extremities. Overall the condition is very good and except for Vol 1, internally near fine: clean and tight throughout.
