I bought this in the 1990’s at a secondhand book shop. It was in good condition and it still is as I haven’t used it a lot. It’s hardcover with Dust Jacket. The binding is tight and all 1,284 pages within. No marks, writing, underlining, highlighting, rips, tears, bends, or folds. The covers are pertect. The pages and spine are excellent. The dust jacket has some minor wear due to storage. The page edges are slightly soiled. Please see photos as I really tried to highlight the flaws. This is a relatively rare edition of this dictionary.
