About this Item

While this volume is still in the publisher's shrink wrap, the front cover underneath the shrink wrap has some soil -- which is probably easy to remove, given that the binding is coated/glossy, but I'm grading this as Very Good just in case the soil is not easy to remove. [otob] Size: Oversize.
