I purchased and kept these at the nursery. There are noticeable stains only on photos 2 and 3. The other books have minor scratches on the covers, but they are in almost new condition as I haven't read them much. I apologize if I missed anything. There is a name written on the back, so I will black it out before shipping. #Kodomo no Tomo Shonen-ban (Children's Friend, Younger Edition)
