Footnote
Note: Wade Nos. 75-81. The binding, presumably a remainder binding, appears to vary from Wade (p. 94) in two respects. The boards are grey paper and there are gold/pale brown silk markers in at least four of the volumes. Wade describes the remained binding as grey-green linen spines with light brown boards and without silk markers.
