Good condition

Box:
Very slight discolouration to the edges and the upper board
Moisture stain in the upper right corner, barely visible on the upper board but more marked on the flaps of the box and on the inside
The moisture stain is also visible on the title page of the series
Spine sun-faded

Plates:
A few small scattered foxmarks on the title and limitation pages, with the moisture stain slightly visible at the upper corner
A light superficial crease at the edge of the limitation page
The moisture staining from the box appears more superficially and discreetly on certain mounts, without any direct impact on the illustrations; two sheets, one of them a little more noticeably, show traces of humidity, including a slightly pinkish stain (see photo)
Rare and light foxing on three of the plates, slightly more visible on one of them (see photos)
The plates are overall pleasantly clean
