Light wear and scuffing to spine ends and extremities, with a little discoloration of the cloth at spine ends; internally clean and fresh, offsetting to front flyleaf from something, most likely newsprint that at one time was laid in at the front; in a strong, pale paper dustjacket with some sunning to the spine panel and a little light soiling in places.
