This listing is for an uncorrected proof (Advance Reader Copy) of No Reservations (Paperback, 2007) by Anthony Bourdain.  While this book is a paperback, it would have preceded the first edition hardcover.  This book is used.  For condition information, please see below.  Also, please note that (as this is an uncorrected proof) the production and material quality is not equivalent to the finished product (As per the disclaimer in the 4th Photo above).


Condition Details

Covers have creases, edge wear including some small tears and a little chipping, a small internal tear along the spine, scratches/scuffs, a small area of surface wear-through, and some soiling (See 11th-16th Photos for examples).


Outside of text-block has some wear and some soiling (mostly to the bottom - See 16th Photo for example).


Pages have some age yellowing to the outer edge (See 17th Photo w/ white paper).  Insides of covers have more significant yellowing (See 18th Photo w/ white paper).  First leaf has a small stain to the edge (See 19th Photo).  Another page has a fair amount of smudging / light staining (See 20th/21st Photos - both of same page). Other pages have occasional small, innocuous spots, most of which were likely present since printing.


Pages have a fair amount of edge wear with corner creases being common.  Some pages have somewhat larger creases (See 22nd Photo for example).


All text is clear and readable (some of the page numbers are partially cut off at the bottom, but still remain readable - See 23rd Photo for example).  Binding is in good, secure condition (See Last Photo for example).
