~~CONDITION~~
They are in genuine antique condition, as you can see from the photos. Tthey are distressed from years of genuine use and some of the pages/covers are delicate and loose. The pages are yellowed with age, with age spots. They have been held and read by many, many people who have "thumbed through" them, studied them, ear marked pages, loved, lost and cherished them and they have finally ended up here - looking for a new home and a new adventure. They have also gathered a few pencil marks and names inside the covers over the years. I've left them exactly as I found them because they're authentic. Most importantly they have that "old book smell" reminiscent of libraries and bookshops from a by-gone era - fabulously comforting.
