Complete works of Ryunosuke Akutagawa, all 6 volumes. All 6 volumes are first editions. 75 years have passed since publication, and the outer boxes show noticeable stains and dirt. (Especially, the spines of the outer boxes are noticeably sun-faded and stained due to being on a bookshelf.) The books themselves also show yellowing and stains, but volumes 3 to 6 still have their original wax paper. There are absolutely no problems with reading them.
