The binding is tight and square. The end papers are clean with No inscriptions, No bookplates, No owner names and No bookstore stamps. The internal pages appear as clean, crisp, bright and flat, with No tears, No bent pages, No handling marks, No stains, no foxing and No writing. Beautiful highly collectible example of this title, internally appearing as unread. Please see images.
The scarce original price clipped dust jacket has benefited from very slight restoration to the outer spine tips by an expert paper conservator and as such presents as a near fine example. The jacket has strong vibrant colors with none of the otherwise typical fading to the spine which often bring the red tones to a light beige. Instead this jacket has strong vibrant colors with very slight toning to the rear panel, otherwise with no rips, no chips, no edgewear, no stains, no fading, and no rubbing. A stunning dust jacket in hard to locate condition! Please see detailed images.
A very handsome example of this scarce title in beautiful collectible condition. Would be perfect for the collector of this classic series!
