Condition report

Condition: Good. Dust jacket condition: Acceptable. The binding is firm and the pages are generally very clean. There's residue from tape around the top and bottom edges of the dust cover and pastedowns (one of the previous owners must have taped the dust cover to the book). There's some light rubbing and age related wear to the dust cover, particularly at the top of the spine (see images). The boards are in very good condition, with only very minor signs of wear. There's some tanning and tape residue on the end pages and fly-leaf. There's also some foxing to the page edges.
