A new spine and associated interior hinge strengthening was just completed, making for a functional copy. The covers are bumped, rubbed and generally shelf worn but retain a good level of brightness. There is some manufacturing related creasing from about pages 461-540. This diminishes on both ends of that range and is most severe as shown in the USA picture. Page 381/382 has a 1 1/2" triangular clip off the outside edge. A light pencilled notation on one page has been erased. There may/may not be another. All in all the textblock is in good shape.   #404.  Click on "Warship Observer" above for 100+ listings of JFS.
