There were the original 8 volume sets, and then later they reprinted them in a 2 volume set. I have an original 2 volume set, and had a couple of the single volumes of the 8 volume set which I sold off a long time ago. Back in the 90s, the local museum kit shop would drag duplicate books to the base flea market, and charge $2 for the little books, $5 or 10 for the larger books, and $20 for a pile. My pile was procured under the $20 deal.
The volumes are numbered, but having only seen a small number of these books, I cannot ratify what quantities were printed. Of the 8 mixed volumes above my desk, the highest number is a couple from set number 19. Some of them have the departments they were issued to printed on the inside cover.
