Condition report

The covers are heavily discoloured at the spine, with the top left edge of the front cover and the far right edge of the back cover also affected. It is unclear whether the material is leather or faux leather. The binding is firm, and the pages are generally clean with rough-cut edges. There is a minor 1cm tear to the bottom left corner of the FFEP, which also has an inscription. The tissue guard is still in place, protecting the frontispiece. Overall, the book is in good condition, with the main flaw being the discolouration to the boards.
