Vol 3 Encyclopedia of American Cut & Engraved Glass 1880-1917 J Michael Pearson

Description: Encyclopedia of American Cut and Engraved Glass-Volume lll: Geometric Motifs by Michael J. Pearson Hardcover with Dust Jacket 1st Edition 1978 ISBN 0-916528-05-7 I'm listing the book as in 'Good' condition, but it would probably be rated higher than that by most. I'll give an explanation of what I see, with a supply of uploaded pictures/video and you can decide. Dust Jacket. Probably 'Good' condition. This one is difficult for me to judge. It's 45 years old and has been pulled off and put back on a shelf a few times. There's very light wear on the edges of the binding area of the dust jacket where there is a sharp angle. Nothing is torn through, but you can see the light wear. On the upper part of the dust jacket, on the spine area, it looks like a price sticker pulled a bit of the dust cover off upon removal. It's about an inch square at most. It only broke through the green color. There is no hole. The bottom edge of the dust jacket looks really good. The top edge has just a bit of wear on it- it's not much. There's a small tear on the back of the dust jacket, top edge about a half inch in length. All this sounds like a lot, but it's not. I think it looks great for almost 50 years old! The book itself- is in Very Good, maybe VG+ condition. That's obviously subjective. It looks almost new really. The pages have NO damage to them. There's no writing, highlighting, or things of that nature. No bends or tears. There might be just a slight color shift in the white pages from being half a century old. The blue cover, front and back, as well as the binding look amazing.. close to New. There's a faint smell of 'old book' to it. Anyways, that's what I see. It's a far better book description than you will get from anyone else on ebay. Don't like it?? Send it back. I'll pay for the return shipping, no questions asked. It seems to have a following, so I'm not worried about it selling . I'm going to shrink wrap it in a polyolefin plastic to protect the book. It's the material you see many books wrapped in. Take a pair of scissors and nip a corner of the plastic off until you get a small hole on a seam-it will easily separate like a zipper after that. It will be shipped in a sturdy box. All pictures are of the book you will receive. I only have the one. Next day shipping media mail. Thanks for considering.
