Condition:
Some very light soiling to the covers and spine; there are a few tiny cloth days at the top and bottom edges of the spine; small cloth tears at 3 of the corner tips. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Nice interior - mostly clean with only some sparse foxing and an occasional stain; no writing found. Overall the book is in very good condition.
