A set of eight volumes titled World War II, published by Orbis Publishing. This collection comprises the series of illustrated partworks originally issued in weekly instalments and subsequently gathered into the publisher’s official binders. The volumes are uniformly bound in red textured faux-leather cloth. Each spine displays a black rectangular panel with the title embossed in gold-toned block lettering. Below the title, the specific volume numbers, from Vol. 1 to Vol. 8, are stamped in gold, with the publisher’s mark ORBIS at the base. These reference sets are known for their extensive use of archival photographs, maps, and historical analysis, often overseen by editor-in-chief Brigadier Peter Young.
