Description of the Short Story Collection:
- White card covers, with Vignette on the front and drawings of Mickey and Mini"s faces on the back.
- The stories are stapled bound, with guillotined and untreated cuts.
- Bone white paper, of medium thickness and regular quality.
- Colour printing, good ink, with regular or bad stamping, poorly centred and with scarce margins.

Conservation and Damage:
- General condition poor and very tired, with the covers in worse condition than the inner leaves, due to their poor conservation.
- The cardboard and paper of the stories have some small tears, are very oxidised, dirty, stained and yellowed, due to exposure to humidity and time, and the edges are worn and deteriorated by slight folds and creases.
- All the volumes of each story have been unbound, removing the staples that were heavily oxidised, in order to prevent the aforementioned rust from further deteriorating the story.
- There are some volumes with very off-centre stamping, especially volumes 22, 42, 44, 65, 81, and 85.
- The number of the pages and the number of the Volume have been noted in pencil on the Rear Cover.

Comments:
- Both Measurements, and Weight, are approximate.
- Very interesting and quite rare Short Story Collection.
- The tones of the colours in the photos are not the same as the tones of the real colours.
- The object for sale is the one that corresponds to the photos. The description is not a detailed exposition of it.
- The data provided here are personal opinions not contrasted.
DELIVERIES ARE MADE ON MONDAYS.
