Hard Cover. Condition: NF. Dust Jacket Condition: VG+. Revised Edition. Quarto. Ochre colored boards fifthbound in a black cloth backstrip with shiny gilt lettering on the spine. Book has very slight bumping at the head and tail of the spine. White endpapers. Binding is straight and tight. Pages are all clean, white, and crisp.…438 pages. Illustrated throughout with photographs, diagrams, illustrations, etc. Dust Jacket - has a nearly unnoticable trace of rubbing at the head and tail of the spine and at the extreme tips of a couple corners. Spine is slightly sunned, but the black lettering is completely unaffected. Slight discoloration on the inside of the dust jacket along the upper edge of the rear cover, near the tip of the outside corner, from water exposure - about 4" long, but 1" at deepest point, and 3/4" deep for the most part. Not noticable from the outside unless you're looking closely for it on account of the light marbled tan of the jacket color. Nice looking copy of a somewhat uncommon book.
