These magnificently bound 1990 sets have to stay out of the landfill! Fresh condition, the 29-volume Britannica comes with 1 Guide to the Britannica, 2 index volumes and a 1990 and 1991 Book of the Years (i. e, covering the previous years' events). The 21-volume Annals cover the years 1493 to 1986, consisting of the writings of popular minds like Thomas Jefferson and E.E. Cummings. The Britannica is expecteded in dark blue, and the Annals are in a royal blue. A lot of people are familiar with exactly what the within of an encyclopedia appears like, but among the pictures shows the within of the Annals-- as you can see, they are in stunning condition. Very handsome and well worth the $20 I'm asking. The books are on a classic open wooden bookshelf of posts and 5 racks, likewise $20. Buy separately, or together for $35.00. Whether you use the books to improve a student, enlighten your mind or upcycle them into other uses, they beg you to make them part of your family's life.
