Notes |
Vellum is dust and finger marked and with some slight grubbiness inside the joint recesses but the gilt is bright. Tiny patch of loss to the printed red label. Cloth is dust marked to edges but colour is still bright. Some uneven toning to endpapers. Text is clean. Binding is sound. This remains a very pretty copy. |
