Description
Up for sale is this wonderful 6-Volume Library of Universal Knowledge dated 1905 and hidden in storage for 60+ years. This is truly a historical treasure for its contents, fascinating text, and vibrant illustrations. We are including photos of the publication details, table of contents, and samples of the text as well as a few of the many monotone and colored illustrations. As you can also see in the photos, the leather end bindings are a little tattered, however, the front/backs and construction of each book are solid and show only minor wear. Please write us with questions if you are interested since we are hoping to find a new home for these with no returns. fyi...each book weighs almost 6-lbs so we are expecting the total shipping weight to be almost 40-lbs. Thank you for considering this special purchase from our family library.
