The shrink-wrapped set contains three original Borland manuals:

• Getting Started
• User’s Guide
• Quick Reference Guide

These were the three principal manuals covering installation, everyday database operation and frequently used Paradox commands. The set is documentation only and does not include software disks, a license, retail software box or additional manuals.

New old stock condition with the original shrink wrap still present. The wrap has scattered tears and openings, particularly along the upper and lower edges. The books show light shelf wear, corner wear and surface marks beneath the packaging.

An appealing piece of early Windows database software history for a Borland, Paradox, vintage computing or technical-documentation collection. Paradox for Windows was notable for its extensive printed documentation, and these three manuals formed the core user set.
