Condition Report:
Please examine the high-resolution photos carefully as they are the best representation of the book's condition. Notable flaws include:
- Front Cover: A significant tear/chip on the left spine edge (near the Joker's hand) and another smaller tear/crease further down the spine.
- Back Cover: Visible shelf wear, some light staining/foxing, and small tears along the bottom edge.
