Each book is presented in a cardboard slipcase, which have become discolored with age.

The books themselves, however, are in very good condition. Some age discoloration to text but all are nicely presented and soundly bound. Some of the books contain occasional notes and underlines from the previous owner.

A heavy set, weighing 3.65kg, unpacked.

The 4 Shunjusha volumes are approximately 202mm high x 141mm wide in their slipcases, with the Higashi Hongan-ji volume being 224mm high x 164mm wide.
