Externally, mostly smart, with the odd faint mark to boards, minimal to Border. Slight bumping to the heads and tails of the spines, and to the extremities, with a skew to Romance front board. Fading to spine of Romance, and a line to center of front board. Offsetting to free end papers of Border and Praise, with a small tidemark to top edge of rear pastedown to Romance. Slight wear to front end paper hinge of Praise. Internally, Praise and Border firmly bound with plate adjoining p.88 of Romance almost loose. Previous owner's ink inscription to title leaf of Romance. Pages are bright and generally clean, with the faint odd spot to first and final leaves, and to extremities of odd leaf of Border. Very Good.…
