They are in great condition given their age, and they are getting harder and harder to find in this larger, chunky size. These are originals from France. These are not reproductions.

One book can be used for so much. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePLEASE NOTE THIS IS AN ANTIQUE AND NOT A REPRODUCTION, SO THERE IS WEAR AND TEAR COMMENSURATE WITH AGE.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eComes in a cello sleeve. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlease email us if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Monahan Papers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59612136767774,"sku":null,"price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0677\/6170\/1150\/files\/2026-07-1310.37.02.jpg?v=1783960230","url":"https:\/\/www.monahanpapers.co\/products\/1800s-french-buffon-books","provider":"Monahan Papers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
