Condition

In the publisher's original cloth binding. Externally, very smart. The odd minor handling mark to boards. Some slight soiling and discolouration to perimeters. Offsetting and the odd spot to endpapers. Small area of pencil scribbles to rear free endpaper. Internally, firmly bound. Hinges slightly strained in places, but firm. Pages bright and clean if slightly age toned, with the odd spot heavier to fore edge and first and last few leaves.

Very Good
