This set of 3 books comes in its original box. The box has some tears as well as the edge of one book. I couldn’t find a publication year but am guessing the 20’s because of style. All 3 books have wonderful illustrations. Please look at the photos carefully as they are part of the description. I do not cancel bids or auctions so please make sure you want the item before bidding or buying. Thank you for looking and good luck bidding!
