In this case the store that distributed the book as a premium was the multi generational Shaub's Shoe Shop of Lancaster PA; their square ink stamp centered on the front cover. . Mild furring to covers at spine and slight fading to color at cover edges. There is a light vertical fold crease centered to the covers and contents.
