The binding is straight and tight, the corners are sharp, the gold lettering is bright. The book has a mylar protected dust jacket, and looks as if it has seldom been read. But it does have these two notable flaws: The mylar protected dust jacket was taped to the boards many years ago. The tape has disintegrated leaving a residue on the boards. I was able to remove a little of it, but I would prefer leaving that task to someone who is more skilled at it.
