Minuscule nick to the head of the spine and a bit of dust soiling to the top edge, still a bright, near fine copy. The scarce dust jacket is present but missing a large portion (approximately half) of the rear panel. The jacket also shows tiny chips and sun-fading to the spine panel, a short tear and creasing to the head of the front panel, and some light soiling.
