Internally very well-preserved with organic, creamy toning to the pages, the edges of text-block with a few pale marks, a few page-corners with light fold-lines, card wrappers with some light handling marks and a few faint surface scuffs, one heavier scuff at front-edge of spine, the wrappers appearing untidily bound (which is in keeping with the uncorrected proofs), shelf-lean, the extreme corners faintly rubbed, some very light creasing to corners.
