There is NO writing, NO bookplates, and NO remainder marks. It is NOT a book club edition and NOT a former library book. ***** CONDITION: The book and the dust jacket are in NEAR FINE condition. ***** We include new mylar (clear) dust jacket covers with each dust jacket at no extra charge. ****** OUR GUARANTEE TO YOU: All books are guaranteed to be as described.
