The problem of the Dover sets was that they were laminated originally and this tended to wear and make them look "tatty". Otherwise great boks. A set will currently retail for around £125.00 i.e £25.00 per volume.

Bronson is a totally diferent kettle of fish.

The volumes were printed in different numbers over a period of 14 years and thus volume 4 is really hard to get hold of.

There is a complete set for sale in America at £1750 which is a lot more than I have ever charged anyone - a lot more. I have sold 6 sets in total over the years.

(For those not aware I dabble in s/h folk books).

I have a nice set of the original Child !892 - 1898 about to go up on ebay when I get around to it. Probably starting at £800.00. Frankly both a blatant plug and a bargain.
