This old book is from an estate here in North Carolina. It has the expected age wear especially on cover including rub and scuff marks and some top coat wear as shown in photos. I don't see handwriting inside although I didn't look at all 200+ pages. No water stains. It is from a clean house. Being sold "as is" as was found.
