There is a new (January 2025) leather spine cover with gold-tinted lettering according to Jane's convention. Otherwise completely rebound (Maybe ten years ago?) with new covers and endpapers. The original front cover has been pasted over the new one. The textblock is in very good shape. It is only lightly toned while being tear and crease free. The country tabs are a bit thumbed. There are some modest ink notations on the Italian and Turkish pages. The US and Russian pages have a blue/red pencil mark or two. See the Italian page pic for an example. A beautiful copy that can actually be used. Scarce. Will ship insured.  #5.  Click on "Warship Observer" above for 100+ listings of JFS.
