Condition Notes
Well bound edition with original dust cover still present and has protected the cover boards. The cover has suffered some tearing and fraying along the tops and bottom and on the spine however its presence with a fine pastel image adds to the authenticity of the volume.
The inside pages are tanned and with light spotting throughout however the book is still bright and still tightly bound.
