Overall condition good: stamped "damaged" on the half-title page, though no major damage apparent, so was possibly just an unwanted return at some stage (wording is "This book was slightly damaged in transit and is now being sold at a special bargain price"); some scuffs and scratches on the dustjacket, noticeable but not severe, a bit of wear at its edges and corners; the book itself looks in good order, stamped as mentioned, but otherwise appears to be free of marking.
