Tom & AC - here are my brief descriptions of their conditions ---

NOTE : pages aged means natural aging

BEN HUR - brown cover, title/author/publisher in gold print on spine - slight wear at the top & bottom of spine. Inside cover some separation. Cover pages have some writing - a $ amount, two signatures, & "Father, Christmas,1886. Pages are aged but no rips/tears - easy to read. No writing on back cover pages. In really great shape for its age.

Prince William - blue cover, title/publisher in gold on spine. My great uncles sig. & 1947 written on cover page. Pages aged but no rips/tears. Afew, not many, pages have a dark stain (still readable) - looks like something was kept between thos pages for a long time. No other problems.

I.C.S. REF. LIB. - spine is bare, but front& back covers are still attached. No writing on book. Pages aged but no rips/tears.

The Ancient Lowly vol. I - brownish cover, title/author/vol. I/publisher in gold on spine. No rips/tears, pages aged.

Washington.... - brown cover, title/author in gold on spine, some symbol (part of the book cover, not a damage) impressed into the front cover. No torn/ripped pages, pages aged.

Virginia - brown cover,title on front cover, very thin book. Inside cover someone printed Marshall twice, and on the cover page wrote 119 twice and circled them. No rips/tears.

Our Presidents - tan cover, title/author on front cover & spine (pub. also on spine). No writing, rips/tears, pages aged.

The Ancient Lowly vol. II - same description as vol. I above except it has a small damage to the front cover 9nothing major).

Ancient Society - blue cover, title/author/pub. on spine in gold. No writing or rips/tears, pages aged.

Elements of .... - green cover, title/author/series printed on cover & title/author/pub. printed on spine. One minor cover damage near the bottom. No writing or rips/tears. It even has a paperback of "Answers to Problems" in the back.

Ray's... - spine cover is gone, but front/back covers still well attached. Decoratios/title on cover page, brownish cover. A very fancy written message on the cover page. On the next page prior to title page there is writing of it beig "Private Property of John E Everett this book was bought at Shernodsville Nov 4th 1897 Price 72 ct". No rips/tears, pages aged.

Cardigan --- maroon cover with indentation of title on cover, info. on spine but very hard to read. No rips/tears, pages aged.

The Virginians --- multi colored cover - marble like with colors of brown,beige,dark blue/black, and reddish/maroon - on the left side fron cover about a 3/4 inch maroon top to bottom, right corners t & b are brown and the "color" is at 45 degree angles. The spine looks like it has been taped with light brown tape. No tears/rips, pages aged.

That's about it for my descriptions of these "old" books - bring on those offers.

Randy, I'm not sure what "printing", it's not in the book. I assume it's very early. On the back of the title page it says "Entered according to Act of Congress,in the year 1880, by Harper & Brothers. In the Office of Congress, at Washington. All rights reserved." That's about the best I could find, nothing about what edition, copyright, etc.
