Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (NAP, Quadrangle/The New York Times= NAP). You can see the covers in the photos. They look perfectly clean. The green lettering on the spine is very bright. The edges and corners are in excellent shape. The spine has a moderate forward lean, but the book is very solidly bound with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The interior of the book is in excellent condition. The pages are exceptionally clean. I'm not seeing any soiling anywhere. The white inside covers and end papers are also quite clean. There are perhaps a dozen teeny tiny creases at the very tips of the top corners, approximately the same number at the very tips of the bottom corners, not much of anything. I didn't see any conspicuous creasing, no turned-down or placeholder corner creases. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. The newspaper print is generally pretty dark, but occasionally it's a little bit on the light side. In those instances you may have trouble making out an occasional word/sentence or statistic within a box score. That is just the way the book was produced. It has nothing to do with this individual book. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. It's in pretty nice shape. It's very clean. There is only minor wear: a tiny tear just off the top edge of the spine, one very small one off the top edge of the rear cover, a few small scuffs here and there, a light crease off the front bottom edge, and light crease at both spine ends. The white flaps are in quite solid shape. They are very clean. There is little bit of toning off the top edges. There are no tears. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned.…
