Hardcover. Condition: Good. Book contents are in Good condition, but from the outside the book looks rough. The hardcovers have been moisture-stained on the front and rear upper portion near the spine. Some pages inside the book are slightly wavy in the same upper portion near the spine. Thus this is not a collector's copy in any sense, but it is perfectly serviceable, with no loss of detail or color or quality of the drawings themselves on all the pages. Binding is still strong and intact. No DJ. (If shipped outside the 48 States, shipping will be expensive, and will be quoted at that time.).
