Original publisher's blue boards - gilt embossed to the spine. The text supported by a number of photographic reproductions. A former zealous owner has made some very neat corrections to the text in biro - not very noticeable. The tips of 4 upper leaf corners have been turned. Some notable uneven toning to the preliminary blank page and the title page caused by the loose insert of now missing newspaper clippings. 2 or 3 small marks to the rear board and the head and tail of the spine lightly bumped. The jacket has not been price-clipped and has slight creasing to the head of the spine. A very good minus copy in very good plus jacket.
