Condition Report

Overall, this copy is in fairly good condition for its age. The binding is firm and the pages are generally clean. The boards are in good condition, with only very minor age related wear and rubbing (see images). We're unclear on this condition note, however a page from the fly-leaf may have been torn out; the alternative explanation is the gutter beside the first pastedown is slightly worn. This copy is ex-libris and the spine mesh is visible from the first pastedown. There's light tanning around the edges of every page in the book. There's also light spotting on the first and last few pages, incl. the pastedowns.
