Little House: The Complete Nine-Book Collection by Laura Ingalls Wilder

This is a vintage nine-book boxed set of the 'Little House' series by Laura Ingalls Wilder, produced by HarperCollins (likely Harper Trophy) circa the 1970s to early 1990s. The set is housed in a cardboard slipcase featuring an iconic yellow and blue gingham pattern. The front and side of the slipcase display the 'Little House' logo with a log cabin illustration and an artistic depiction of a pioneer family in a covered wagon. The books are softcover (paperback) editions, identifiable by their brightly colored spines in shades of pink, green, blue, and yellow. Regarding condition, the slipcase shows significant wear and structural compromise: the front right edge is heavily frayed with exposed cardboard layers, visible scuffing, and minor staining/foxing on the top and side panels. The cardboard exhibits bowing from pressure and age. The paperbacks inside show typical edge-wear and fading consistent with frequent use and long-term storage. The overall craftsmanship is standard mass-market commercial printing from the late 20th century, utilizing mid-grade paper stock and glue-bound spines.
