This book has been stored improperly when we purchased an estate and looks as though it got damp or wet at some point. Does not hurt the interior or show any odors. It is still a very nice book. The endpapers show some soiling and the back page as can be seen in 2nd to last photo is folded, can be straightened. Please see photos, enlarge and email with any questions. Thanks for looking. |
