GENERAL LITTLE BLUE BOOK CONDITIONS Pocket Series and Little Blue Books were issued using inexpensive materials and thus are almost always found with toned and faded paper. Other small defects such as slightly chipped corners, printer's smudges, and such are common. Any flaws beyond the normal for these will be detailed. Little Blue Books often did not have blue covers - or the blue has faded to gray. Please remember that vintage paper items are more fragile than their modern counterparts, and thus require proper care in handling. THIS COPY -- VERY GOOD -- Cover has a shallow crease at the upper fore-edge corner - edges are toned - else clean and unmarked. Interior paper is not toned. Nice and clean with no marking.…
