An attempt at re-gilding was unsuccessful and left a small, light stain on the bookmark (the excess gilt was carefully cleaned off). The frontispiece for Richard III has wrinkles. The books are otherwise very good: unmarked, tightly bound with very little wear on the leather and only light scratches and dents on the other gilt edges. Offered at a discount because of the flaws mentioned. Free shipping in the USA. Thank you for looking! Loc: 2nd floor sets.
