About This Item
Dust Jacket: As New condition. There is no shelf wear on the panels. The jacket edges and points have no folds, chips, tears, or wear spots. The flaps are unclipped and the suggested retail price remains. No toning (photo).
Book: As New condition. One blemish - the book's pages have a faint vertical wave, cause unknown. Yet the book still lies flat, plumb, and square.
The sturdy boards and spine are free of any blemishes or signs of use. The black lettering on the spine is sharp and unmarred. The quality paper stock (115 lb. Parilus Silk White) results in sharp and colorful photographs and no page toning (photo).
