Condition
In the original full cloth binding. Externally, very smart with fading to the extremities. Original price-clipped dust wrapper is sound with light wear and chipping to the extremities. Light loss to the head of the spine with small closed tears and creases to the panel edges. Sunning to the spine with the odd small mark. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with the odd small spot and light age toning to the endpapers.
Very Good
