This book is in very excellent condition. There is some light handwriting in pencil on the first page of the book that can be erased. There is no other writing or markings inside this book! There are some fading and darkening to the covers and spine. The gold lettering on the spine looks good but has some fading. The dust jacket is in excellent condition with minimal wear. A previous owner placed tape around the edges of the backside of the dust jacket to reinforce and prevent any tears.

This is a very rare book to find in this good of condition. This one is in great condition for being over 75 years old!
