Both hinges have been repaired with acid free tape - the tape is pure white, the pages tanned - it's not pretty; the tail is damaged, there's a remnant sticky tape mark where this had been previously repaired and there's a closed tear on the head of the back cover. A previous owner has made annotations in red on the front end paper and a name and page reference on the back one. In its favour, the body of the book squeaky clean and the binding excellent. Not quite a very good copy.
