These can only be installed separately but the numbers indicate that this is a bundle.
It contains Word 6.0a and Excel 5.0a.
When I install them they both go under the Microsoft Office shortcut.
I tried searching for an Office bundle that contains Word and Excel but couldn't find it.

Going by the copyright date it is most likely Office 4.0

Could be 4.3, going by the date at the top of the labels. Or 4.2 for NT

It looks like it's part of the Office 4.x line but not a bundle. Just Word and Excel put together.
They also have to be installed separately (disk1 and disk11 both have a setup.exe), not like the bundle version where there is a single setup.exe on disk1 and you can install everything from there.

Office 4.2 and 4.3 look different. Mine says Word/Excel, not Office.
Office 4.0 is very similar apart from the missing numbering from 1-20.
Either it's missing the Powerpoint disks or there is a bundle of Office 4.0 that only includes Word and Excel.

Discs 1 - 10 are word, excel is only discs 11 - 20

Probably from a bundle that was included with a OEM system by a small reseller.
