12mo. 33 volumes. Publisher's limp red/burgundy leather, gilt. Top edges gilt. Silk marker ribbons. Some volumes illustrated. Most volumes have a little wear to the spine ends. No ownership marks except for a neat ink presentation on the fly of Something of Myself, 'To Willie, With fondest love from Clara 15.vi.37.' Contents clean and fresh. Near fine. This run lacks just four volumes from the complete set: A Kipling Anthology: Prose; A Kipling Anthology: Verse; Souvenirs of France & Thy Servant a Dog. Most volumes are reprints from the late 1920s but there are some first editions (in any format) included. Complete sets are very uncommon due to the long publishing history and the fact that, though it is called a Uniform Edition, it was never sold new as a set. Someone has clearly spent years putting this together.
