They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

(Doke Collection, p. 84; Murphy & Goff, 1097 [earlier editions]) "The compilers based their initial work upon A. T. Bryant's 1905 Zulu-English Dictionary, with the ready consent of the author, who wrote in 1937 that 'such a Zulu Dictionary as you forecast had sometime to come, and that time has come'. The need for a new Zulu dictionary was urgent. Both Bryant's outstanding work and the late R. C. Samuelson's King Cetywayo Zulu Dictionary were out of print; only Colenso's work, very sound but now out of date and inadequate in scope for the present requirements of the study of the language, was still procurable. Bryant's work, together with the standard set by Colenso, provided the type of Zulu chosen as fundamental, while the compilers felt it advisable to widen the scope somewhat to include contributions from other areas of Natal and Zululand.".
