Overall condition fair to good: the dustjacket on this copy is ragged at the edges and corners, and rather rubbed overall; some bumps and dinks on the boards and spine, and in particular, a noticeable bump to the lower outside corner on the front; pages starting to yellow a little with age, otherwise looks in good order internally, text appears to be free of marking.
