Dark blue cloth covered hard cover boards. There is an abrasion mark to the left side of the cover, about the size of a raisin - see photos, minor amount of edge wear. Sewn binding is tight and square. Edges of the text block are clean. No writing on the text pages, no former ownership marks. This is not a library discard copy.
