My patience has been rewarded! I have been searching for this print ever since it on the cover of the New Yorker in 2017. Prompt shipping, excellent packaging and a great value from my point of view. In very good shape as described other than a red blemish in a field of white, hardly noticeable and easy to ignore. I recommend this seller.

The box set I purchased was brand new, still in shrink wrapped in the GD shipping box, inside another box filled with peanuts for protection. I didn't remember reading that this was brand new so this was a pleasant discovery! Shipping was great, the item was better than described, and the value exceeded the price I paid.

Another outstanding experience with this seller. Fast international shipping (two days!), excellent packaging, and a very desirable book in like-new condition - just as described. Absolutely excellent value for money. I cannot recommend this seller highly enough and will certainly be a returning customer.
