Seller's Description:
Good. No Jacket. The boards are quite shelf rubbed and edge worn, with tearing and scarring along the edges and the top and bottom of the spine. Despite this, the boards are strong and square. Internally, the spine is cracked, the end pages are rubbed and there is tanning and light foxing throughout. The pages remain otherwise neat and complete. The binding is sound. In good condition for its age! JNor.
