Condition
Near-fine book in original, protective tissue paper. Light, almost imperceptible crease to upper spine tip, a few spots of wear to the top edge gilt work, and what seems to be a small manufacturing error to the endpapers which are slightly creased close to the hinge (please see photo 18). Otherwise an immaculate example, inside and out. In a very good clamshell case that is lightly shelf-worn and with a shallow ding.
