The gilt edges of the books are all shown in the pictures provided. They are in excellent condition. The slipcases have no damage and no staining. One book has the signature of the previous owner, a big game hunter in his own right (see last picture). I noted that the book ""Cruises in the Bering Sea"" has a spot on the edge of the back cover where there is an abrasion of the leather. Very scarce and desirable.
