Green cloth boards, titles in red to spine, top edge stained red.
Very good indeed in a like, unclipped dust jacket. A little fading to the spine and edges of the boards, a small tidemark to the top edge, near the spine, a very slight lean. Small bookseller’s label to front pastedown.

The jacket with spine sunned as is usual, a 1cm closed tear to top edge of front panel, chips not exceeding 0.5cm to head and foot of jacket spine.

A very good copy indeed.
