First-issue dust jacket with publisher's "7/6 net" price on spine. VERY GOOD + book in GOOD + dust jacket. Book has slight sun-fading to the spine, slight wear to the top spine end, and very faint clear staining to the front and rear boards. Otherwise bright and unworn with no bumping, tight and square, with strong, secure hinges. Excellent interior except for a 2" x 1" circular water stain on the rear pastedown and endpaper and fairly heavy age-toning to the pages which are otherwise close to flawless. No previous owner signature or bookplate but there is a small piece of cloth tape with a price written on it on the rear pastedown. Dust jacket has a sun-darkened spine which is also faintly water-stained and worn at the top and bottom edges without loss of lettering. Wear to all the folds, heaviest on the front spine fold which has a partial split repaired with clear archival paper mending tape on the reverse side. Rear panel has a 3/4" closed tear at the top edge with an associated crease. Front panel has light wear to the edges and a few small faint stains. Age-toning to both panels. Otherwise excellent and still nearly Very Good. Jacket is protected in a mylar cover..
