Ex library book with usual library notations, stamps, etc. This was a reference book and does not have a card pouch. Very clean, tightly bound volume.

This is a bound volume which contains all the text of the issues, but does not contain the covers of any of the individual issues or the advertisements that were at the end of any of the issues.
