Condition. The book is in Very Good condition. A small light damp stain
(ca 1 in) is visible in the bottom spine side corner of the front and back
covers and shows on the first and last 10 pages. Aside from that the pages are
fault free with bright vivid colors. Cloth covered spin in perfect condition
which is unusual for this book. The outside covers have wrinkling/curling along
the edges. Overall an excellent copy of this book. The folding case is in poor
condition. Clasps are missing, light overall fading. The spine of the case is
darkened and reinforced with clear tape.

От себя добавлю - книга дивной красоты и то, что стоит она (как выяснилось) приличных денег, только добавляет ей дополнительную привлекательность.:)
