Fair. No Jacket. Words "First Published, 1928" appear on back of title page. Paper still very good--only beginnings of discoloration at edges are noticeable. However the binding at spine is frayed, and corners are rather well bumped. Outside edges also bumped and frayed. Actual boards decorated with colored lines show some wear but are not too bad. Also original spine label is present but difficult to read.
