Books in a Box [22]

Thirty-seven titles in two boxes. Some are only one volume of multi-volume works, several are bound together, some are multiple volumes in one listing. Most of these are on my WorldCat list

(It appears we’re repeating old “In a Box” titles, but we have no idea what happened to the old boxes. Another thing to be careful of when inventorying.)
