Condition Notes
This book was well-used. Pieces of glossy cover missing at top corners, front and back. Pages detached from spine binding and although all together, could fall out in chunks and some are out of order. Title page was not in beginning. Page edges are brown and ragged. Some pages torn, some with pencil scribbles.
