About This Item
Harvard University Press, 1954. Revised Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good Dust Jacket. This old book with dust jacket is clean, solid and in great shape! This is a hardcover book with 443 pages including many illustrations. The binding is strong with all pages firmly attached. The book has a musty odor but is clean with no writing or tears. The copyright page shows 1954 as the published date and the title page states Revised Edition. This is definitely Not a former library book. The dust jacket is about 99% intact with light chipping along the edges, light edgewear and there is a 2x4 inch stain on the bottom of the back. I have placed the DJ in a fresh mylar jacket and this old book looks and feels great! We always ship in a sturdy cardboard box!
