Pages crisp and clean, with no owners' marks; binding square and secure; hard cover shows rubbing and softening at the spine ends and mild fading along the free edges, otherwise excellent. Jacket is priceclipped, age-toned at the spine and edges, shows a short, closed tear at the top front and a little very short tearing and chipping at the spine ends, and has a pale, brownish spot at the left rear, but is otherwise sound and attractive, now protected in a clear sleeve.
