Condition Report

The binding is tight, however there's a slight lean to the book. There's also some staining, discolouration and age related wear to the cloth (see images). The pages are clean albeit tanned. There's an inscription on the ffep dated 1945. The previous owner has scored the final digit of the year on the copyright page, which is why it's difficult to read the date.
