The clipped jacket; The front has has two closed tears at the front; the spine strip has a small stain near the middle, suffers from insect damage, minor at the head, but at the tail all that is left of 'Gray' is "Gr" and half an 'a'. Despite its faults, the jacket remains atrractive. The body of the book is in execellet condition, clean, unmarked and solid. A nice copy.
