"A Swiftly Tilting Planet" in NF- condition with light edge wear to head and foot of backstrap and faint soiling on top and outer edge. Barely discernible evidence of moisture at foot of spine- found it due to the inside of the jacket. Jacket VG due to moisture stain at foot of spine 3/8" high off the bottom edge- about 2 1/2" long, centering on the spine. Otherwise, just some minor edge wear. "A Wind in the Door" in NF condition with edge wear to top corners and head and foot of the backstrap. Very faint evidence of water damage to outer foot of backstrap- mainly in a slight lightening of the black dye on the cloth.
