Notes Red boards with gilt titles to the spine are very clean and neat. Slight suggestion that the first few pages have been wet with some crinkling to lower margin and a little ink transfer from the original (Westmorland Gazette) price label that is on the inner dust jacket flap. The majority of the pages are unaffected by this. The dust jacket is clean but slightly rolled to the top edge and slightly sunned to the spine.
