Jnana-caksusa das: With all humility i present these for your attention. If you are looking at this listing perhaps you understand how amazing and significant these Srimad Bhagwatams (Bhagavatams) are. These are the original printings by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in Delhi, India. The first canto part one was printed in 1962, first canto part two in 1964, and first canto part three in 1965. Upon the completion of the first canto part three Srila Prabhupada then shortly after embarked aboard the Jaladutta steamship to America and then in 1966 founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, for which we are eternally indebted. This set was actually distributed by Srila Prabhupada while in still in India. Inside of each volume is a stamp with the name and address of a gentleman in Bombay (Mumbai). The overall condition of these is phenomenal. One odd aspect is the part two has a different covering over the boards. Parts one and three are the usual brick red with the gold embossed lettering but part two is a plain red with no lettering. The binding looks exactly the same and the glued on end papers have the same coloring on all three. In my estimation this looks like it was done at the printer at the time of printing due to there being no signs of rebinding. The dust jackets are in amazing condition. These could be one of handful with such amazing color and such wonderful intactness. The dust jackets of the devotees in the early days of the movement had gotten quite a bit of wear and tear so to see these in this condition is unheard of. The dust jackets come in protective mylar covers that are removable. I do have more pictures if you are interested (at262nd@yahoo.com). Thank you, Hare Krishna!
