I've reread the items a few times, but they are in good condition. I purchased them when each volume was released, and except for the first volume, the remaining 22 volumes are first editions. All but volumes 3-6 have their original bands. I can't upload all the photos, so I've only included the inside back cover of volume 1 (to confirm it's not a first edition). Please consider purchasing only if you understand that these items have been stored by a private individual. Please comment if you have any questions (^^)
