This is a First Edition First Printing book from 1939 with a reproduction dust jacket. The book is in fair condition. All pages of the book are intact with minimal markings inside the book. There are some bracket markings in the margins throughout the book. There is no other writing or markings on the text pages of the book. There is significant wear to the spine: Fading to the red cloth and gilt lettering, tear to the red cloth at the top of the spine cover, splitting at the front pages of the book with webbing exposed, the backboard is detached from the spine and is currently being held together by the red cloth cover.

Despite the conditions, this is a wonderful and unique book to add to any AA collection!
