The tan cloth exterior of the book is quite spotted and soiled, spine is darkened and there is a rectangular spot near the title on the front, presumably from a price sticker. The internal binding is good, no hinge issues. Pages are toned due to age and there is some spotting and smudge marks scattered about. No other handwriting noted other than the author's inscription, no bookplates, no library markings. Copyright page states fifth printing. Signed by Author(s).
