This is a very nice set of Audels with a complete set of 4 volumes printed and copyright in 1923, the first edition, first printing. One of my favorite reference book sets for information on building and carpentry techniques from the 1920's. The 1st volume is very good for information on tools of that days and how to care for them. Each book is 5" x 6.7" has a black leather like pressed cloth semi soft boards, gold gilt spine lettering; pages are tipped in gold gilt on all three sides. All are in good to good++ condition, covers are clean, spines are tight and straight. Minor wear on the spines resulted in a seam line to appear in the center of the spines, much less than normal on this set, considered minor, nice white and clean pages no tears, scribbling, or stains. Good tight bindings in all volumes. Overall is good++ to very good condition, clean, not musty. A nice set of books covering tools, steel square, cutting tools, saw sharpening, nails, screws, joinery, furniture, math, drawings, estimating, house and roof framing, layout, foundations, doors, windows, stair building, mill-work, painting, etc. Lots of good information.
