Japan's History: 16-Volume Set

I purchased this new in 1982.
I bought it because I like history, but I was busy with work and play at the time (^◇^;), so I only flipped through it. I kept it on the bookshelf, thinking I'd read it someday.
The first photo shows it on the bookshelf, and it's not a case that fits the whole thing.

During a move, it was tied with string, leaving marks (like in photos 7 and 8).
There are staples at the top and bottom of the case, and there is rust on or under pages 1, 5, 15, and 16 (as shown in photos 17 and 18).

Although it's been many years, the case is clean except for the above-mentioned parts.
The book itself is also very clean.

It cost around 40,000 yen.

Please refrain from purchasing this as a reference book, as it is old.
