| Notes | Dust wrapper has a small area of surface loss to the front and scuffing, creasing and closed tears but has been neatly covered some time ago in permanent plastic which has stabilised it but the plastic has yellowed slightly and caused some slight running of ink to the blurb on the flaps. Red cloth with gilt titles to spine is very clean and generally neat. Bumped slightly to head of spine. Binding is sound. Text is clean. |
