Please note the wear on the spine, at the corners and near/along the edges! Please also note the bottom corner of the inside front flap has been clipped! The wear, particularly near/along the edges, is VERY clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered. We tend to grade the condition of our books rather harshly and took into consideration any and all wear when determining the value of this rare book. We purposely and closely photographed what we consider to be the most obvious and egregious wear. Once again, we want to reiterate that the wear to both the book and especially the dust jacket is VERY clearly visible! All of the wear, particularly to the dust jacket, should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. Numerous photographs from various angles were taken for your consideration/inspection.
