Overall condition fair to good: this copy lacks its slipcase; the dustjacket is a bit faded on its spine and somewhat ripped at the edges, with a small piece missing at the top of the back panel and a small hole about half way down the left side of the front panel; the text pages are printed on good-quality glossy paper, but the colour plates are tipped-in on a lower grade paper which shows some discolouration.
