Over the decades the tape is become dry and brittle and has slightly darkened the end pages and pastedowns. Gray cloth boards underneath are clean and corners are sharp. The only issue is the spine is a bit toned. The internal binding is good and text pages are tight, no hinge issues, no signatures or bookplates, no library markings, no handwriting found. Pages are a bit toned due to age.
