About This Item
Cambridge University Press; second edition, 1963. Library copy (Wimbledon School of Art) with corresponding protective cover and stamps etc to the front endpaper. Appears to have been very lightly borrowed – it is marked as reserved stock and there are no date stamps on the record sheet. There is slight age-related spotting to the top of text block. Internally, there are (extremely minor) annotations in pencil to the title page but otherwise the pages are in excellent condition - clean and bright and tightly bound. There is a small tear at the foot of the front cover of the jacket and minor rubbing at both ends of the spine. The jacket is price clipped.
