Shiny green wrappers with two artworks by Fra Angelico (1387/8-1455) on top and bottom half front cover; Title lettering in black letters superimposed on the upper artwork and the Subtitle superimposed upon the lower artwork in white letters; Compiler name and other names of contributors in very small black letters, superimposed upon the green background across middle front cover, between the two artworks. Light age-toning around page perimeters and book edges with nugatory rubbing against a few pages on the fore-edge (not noticeable when book under weight, perhaps eliminable); superficial tiny creases at front cover corners (NOT detectable on corresponding locations on inside covers); previous owner name and purchase date neatly on top left inside front cover: it all describes much worse than it is, but there you have it. Implementing the "Forgive Seventy times Seven" Rule will heal these peccadilloes. Book is essentially Fine, looking like the typical Anchor Books thick scholarly paperback. Solid copy: Firm binding (NO creases); sharp corners (NO bumps or curls); NO remainder marks. Clean text. Looks unread.

All domestic orders will be sent by USPS Media Mail, unless some other mode of shipping is requested or required and accepted in advance of shipping. International orders will be sent by USPS International Flat-Rate Priority envelope or box, unless the current weight and size restrictions cannot be met or insurance is requested or required (e.g., the book is worth $40.00 or more). All books sent by USPS Flat-Rate unpadded envelope (or padded envelope, moreover) will be wrapped in paper and packed between cardboard sheets larger than the book or with cardboard affixed at the corners, in order to prevent damage to the book during shipment.
