Extremities are worn, spine chipped at top and bottom and along hinges. Corners are bumped. Some fading / shelf wear and staining present on front and rear boards. Spine lightly faded, with gilt titling still present and clear. Light stain that runs through the bottom end of the hinge side of interior pages is present, but has little to no effect on the integrity of the book.
