All in black or dark blue cloth, and all lettered uniformly on the spine despite a variety of publishers [Chatto & Windus : Heinemann : Methuen : Cassell], only one joint cracked through the end-paper, some spines faded, a couple of volumes with one, and two, small holes in the spines, some ten volumes with a varying amount of insect chewing to the board edges, mostly trivial, a couple of volumes with the front covers faded and blotchy, some volumes with the top edges gilt, some with pages uncut and partially unopened, all contents clean and bright, overall an attractive collection of a little more than half of Stevenson's output.
