Original price was: $640.00.$518.40Current price is: $518.40.

Board corners are bumped with some wear to the cloth. Spine head and tail are bumped and show wear on the cloth. The spine and both boards are relatively uniform all around in color, some random spots in a few places. See accompanying images for full condition details. Scarce edition. Will ship promptly, carefully packaged.
