Condition

In the original full vellum binding. Externally, smart with light shelf wear and bumping to the extremities. Fading to the spine and the odd mark to the board. Light discolouration to the vellum as is typical with age. Loss of ribbon tie to the boards. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are very bright with light spotting, predominantly to the first and last few pages.

Very Good
