CONDITION REPORT

Clean and uninscribed, well-read copies, overall graded as good plus, in like slipcases. Some of the books show a little foxing to edges and a few small spots throughout (notably 'Casino Royale' and 'Moonraker'; some of the other titles show only very light foxing, while several not at all), there is the odd bumped corner to the boards or light creases to spine tips, and a couple of the volumes have one or two pages on which the foxing is more prevalent (one such page, the worst culprit, pictured last). They are all housed in slipcases that show the occasional heavy bump to corner(s) and, perhaps a small split (notably 'For Your Eyes Only', pictured); else structurally sound. 'Goldfinger' and 'The Spy Who Loved Me' are still-sealed copies, albeit a little bumped to corners as well.

Perhaps not copies for the collector who prefers all his books in fine, unblemished condition, but excellent reading copies which still display rather beautifully on a shelf. Offered herewith for significantly less than retail price to reflect the condition.
