Please add your MOBILE PHONE number to the order either in the order notes or by separate message. This is needed for booking the courier for this HEAVY set. Mobile numbers are not automatically collected by Etsy at checkout.
Inside the pages are clean and tightly bound. This copy has not been written in and there are no other markings of previous ownership. All of the colour plates are present as called for and they have tissue guards. With some nicks, chips and creases to some of the tissues, but minor all the tissues remain clean and smart. Shiny gilt edged on all sides.
Dark-red cloth covered boards have ornate decoration to the fronts and spines, and bevelled edges. Again in top order with just some light rubbing around the edges, corners and to the spine ends. Looking extremely eye-catching on display.
Your three-volume set of The Flower Grower's Guide will be wrapped with care in tissue and ribbon* and sent well packaged. A gift message can be included in the package if desired.
