CONDITION
The text binding is tight and firm. The front board is detached, and the rear board by the cords only, both of which could possibly detach in the post even after our best packing. There is wear to the extremities, including rubbing and edge wear, with loss prominent to the spine, and discolouration. Internally the pages have slight browning and intermittent spots or marks. Overall the condition is good only, with a very good interior.
