These books were purchased as new releases at the time of their publication. They are old, so they are generally yellowed. There is no problem with reading them, but I am missing volume 10, so the set is not complete. Please be aware of this. For those who don't mind (*^^*) There are no tears, but they are not new, so no claims and no returns, please. No individual sales. Due to the New Year's holiday, shipping will be delayed. Please be aware of this. Thank you for looking (*^*)
