    Soft cover. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : No Jacket As Issued. All pages are present (I checked). All pages are toned (age tanned) around the perimeter. Some pages are dog-eared or have a bent corner tip. A few spots of foxing (tan spotting) on the last few of pages only. Front and back covers are lightly soiled, wrinkled, rubbed, with some water stains visible along edges of the front cover. These stains did not soak through to the pages themselves. There are also some creases and stress lines near edges of covers -- particularly the back cover. So this is a worn copy but complete with mostly clean pages. It will be bubble-wrapped and carefully packed in a sturdy box to ensure safe transit.
