This is the original 3 volume box set with the other two hardcover
books outside the box. These have never been cracked.

set is the box and the leather bookmark - yet at about 1/2 the price.

I can deliver these within the city limits - email for shipping, some
of these books are heavy but a relatively cheap and quick way to build
an impressive collection.
