This set of 30 small books has survived kids and grandkids and their little leather covers show the wear. Kids are fascinated with them because they are "small", I believe. They measure about 3" x 3 7/8". They will appeal to the lover of classics - or those who just like primitive decor. The copper bookends have held them for decades, and I presume were acquired by my mother with them when she was young. Some of the spines are loose from the leather covers. T is no writing in any of them, but t are a few that have the first or last pages torn because they are brittle. The covers show the most wear, and they are all readable (if one has good eyesight:-)) Each one is embossed on the back "Little Leather Library Redcraft Edition" (see picture 7). I won't list all 30 titles , but please email if t are specific ones you are interested in and you want to know if they are in the set. T are Shakespeare, Kipling, Burns, Thoreau, assorted Poem books, Prose books, Man Without A Country, etc. The one pictured in photo 6 is "Ballad of Reading Gaol" by Oscar Wilde. They range from fair-good condition. The tooled leather is slightly variegated but not near the extent shown in photos 4 and 5 which must be shaded due to camera reflection at night.. The last 2 pictures show the true color of the green covers. Winning bidder pays $4.00 shipping media read more
