Ex-library volumes, marked as withdrawn and containing the bookplate of the "Middlesbrough Free Library and Museum." Volumes uniformly bound in russet cloth, with gilt lettering to spines. Each volume contains black and white plates at the end of volume. Older, aesthetically pleasing shelf labels to lower spine of each volume, with some chipping to label on volume 1. Volumes are generally sound, with varying degrees of wear, including general light to medium wear and soiling to each volume. Two of the volumes admit to a bit heavier wear, including a number of tears and chips to exterior. Hinges are cracked in several volumes, with the worst wear to volume 5, which is also shaken and admitting to loose and nearly detached plates at end. Soiling is also the heaviest on volume 5.
