Monumental Brasses is signed by the previous owner to the front free endpaper. Externally, smart with light shelf wear across all volumes, including tearing and peeling, especially to the spine heads and tails. As can be expected, the boards are also a little marked and faded.

A bright and clean collection with only subtle age toning and occasional spotting, heavier to the first and last few pages of each edition. Very Good. John Gould; Sir Max Beerbohm; F. L. Attenborough; Noel Rooke; Albrecht Durer; Rose Ellenby (illustrator). book. …
