Dark blue cover bumped at corners, at spine and along top edge; occasional light mark internally but generally very clean and tidy; light marks at top of rear free end paper which run decreasingly forward for five pages, caused by a mark to the top edge of the page edges. Jacket is worn, nicked internally untidy along top 1 cm with major mark at top of front flap; light markings externally otherwise; some wear along lower edge, esp around rear flap, both externally and internally; but, for all that, major part of front - title, illustration and author's name - has remained bright.
