Condition

In the original green cloth binding. Externally, very smart with minor wear and light fading to the extremities. Original price-clipped dust wrapper is sound with light wear and chipping to the extremities. Light sunning to the spine and panel edges with the odd small mark. The odd small closed tear to the panel edges with light loss to the head and tail of the spine. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright and clean with minor age toning to the endpapers.

Very Good Indeed
