All black lettering on cover & spine crisp & intact. Still displays well- esp. front cover w/ mortar & pestle decoration.

Hinge splits to front & rear covers, but fabric underlay still mostly attached; some paper loss to rear endpapers, near hinge. Text moderately toned; totally legible & appears unmarked.
