Folio Society, The (lot of 50 books)
London: The Folio Society, [ca. 1995-2005]. Collection of 50 books from The Folio Society (49 titles in all, 1 title in 2 volumes). All very good condition with slip cases for all but 1 title; one or two noticeable smudges and light toning on a few covers, otherwise clean and likely unread. Bright colors and metallics will make for an instant library of the classics. The majority of the titles were published between 1995 and 2005; various editions, though all reprints of the originals.
Shipping cost to be considered prior to purchase; weight of collection is 103 lbs. + extra for packing materials (this will likely be shipped in 3 boxes, approximately 40 lbs. each). $100 handling fee has been added to the regular shipping rate (for 1 book) to account for the total cost; final costs will be determined pending buyer's destination.
