Condition Report

Overall, this copy is in good to very good condition. The boards are in good to very good condition, showing only minor signs of wear with some light edge wear present. The paste downs and end pages exhibit noticeable tanning, which is consistent with the book’s age. There is very light spotting to the page edges and some occasional light spotting to the pages themselves. However, the pages are otherwise clean and the binding remains firm.
