Condition:
Light stain at the bottom half of the front cover and at the bottom half of the back cover. There is a tiny nick to the cloth at the bottom-right edge of the spine. The outer edges of the boards each have a few tiny cloth tears. Tiny cloth tears to 2 of the cover corners. Tight binding with no cracks and no loose pages. Nice interior - the text pages are clean with no writing or stains, and only a small foxing spot at the upper-outer corner of pages 20 & 21. There is a light, diagonal crease starting at the top of the page down to the bottom of the page from the front end paper to about page 29. The front end paper has "Rouclere His Book R.P.I. '26" written in pen (a bit of the ink has bled onto the facing pastedown); "1.75" is written in pencil on the rear pastedown. Overall the book is in Very Good- condition.
