Condition is graded C (Acceptable) due to clear wear: the spine heads of both volumes show tearing and fraying, and the top page edges are heavily tanned. Despite this, the set remains complete and usable. Collectors value this edition for Griffith’s lasting scholarship and MRML’s respected publication.
