There is foxing to the page-block edge, some of the pages have a very small foxing mark to the edge but this is very minor and the pages are otherwise very clean.

Two adjoining pages have a small area of browning from where a bookmark was kept, again this is only minor and only affects those two pages.

The cover is in good order, clean and without damage.

The spine is in very good order.

The dust jacket is a little worn to the edges and has a small corner cut out but is in good overall condition.
