I believe that these 15 bound volumes of Harper's contain approximately 90 total issues, and these include many illustrations and articles/stories by the likes of Howard Pyle, Howard Chandler Christy, Albert Sterner, Jessie Willcox Smith, Henry Hutt, Edith Wharton, Rudyard Kipling, Mark Twain and many others. These mags were bound without covers and ads, but are otherwise complete (you may notice some ads in the photos below, but these can be found in only one of these volumes). This lot includes most issues of Harper's beginning in June 1901 and extending through December 1909 (please see detailed list below). Generally speaking, the pages in these volumes are in very good condition, and the hardbound covers range from very good to poor.

No writing or marks except for inside the covers and on the first couple/few pages in some or most books, and on the outer page block of many books. The covers are very good to poor, with some having heavier wear on the leather spines including a few nearly detached or missing spines, in addition to other wear.
