Condition

In the original publisher's cloth binding. Externally, generally smart. Bumping to the head and tail of the spine, as well as the extremities. Some rubbing to the front board has resulted in wear to the title and cover illustration. Some marks to the rear board. A bit of spotting to the fore edge. Rear hinge is starting but firm. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean, with some spots to the first and last few pages. Prior owner has tipped-in scenic postcards throughout the textblock.

Very Good
