A beautiful copy of a scarce edition. It has a new spine and hinges (10+ years ago?) that make for a sturdy and useable book. The covers have some bumping, rubbing and general shelf wear but are nice and solid. The textblock is in exceptional condition, being generally bright and ordered. Other than an inscription on the title page the book is notation free. There is some trivial smudging/soiling here and there. The tabs show signs of use yet remain in good condition. #447.
