Three large 4tos, near folios, in matching full calf, rebacked probably in the 19th century and nicely consolidated. Textually very good. A few spots of whitening to paper, but very good on the whole. Corners bumped with slight breaches of structure there. About as a good a set as I ever expect to see of the first edition.
