Books appear to be completely unmarked within; no names or nameplates, no margin notes, underlining or other markings within text blocks observed. Boards are straight and in good condition as described above. Bindings are quite sound and square. Text blocks are generally very nice with clean, crisp pages; no missing or torn leaves or other damage noted internally. About ten pages in the latter half of volume 4 (cakes and cookies section) exhibit some stains and moderate soiling, but nothing that affects text or illustrations. Otherwise both volumes are internally in very nice condition. Please inspect photos carefully; message with any inquiries.Photos are of the actual item you will receive.
