Near Fine in Wraps: just a hint of wear to the outside edges; the very mildest rubbing to the panels; the front panel wants to curl up at the outside edge ever so slightly; else flawless; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. Free of creases to the panels. Free of creases to the backstrip. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A handsome, nearly-new copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing very mild wear and a barely discernible imperfection. Bright and clean. Very close to 'As New'.
