This is a “very good” vintage book with with the only flaw to speak of being the tale of the spine is bumped.
The vintage dust jacket shows the original publisher’s price of 7.95 sterling inside the front flap. A little edge wear in places, but overall a very pleasing vintage wrapper, now protected in a removable archival sleeve.
