I have a hardcover copy of Seven Men of Gascony with a date of 1975 for sale. The book is still in good condition and it's by R.F. Delderfield. The pages have no staining on them.  The book is tight to the spine and it's not splitting at all. There is no writing inside.  There are two ink stamps, one inside each cover.  There is some wear to the top and bottom of the spine, the edges of the book and the corners as well but not much at all. The corners of the book do bend in some but they are still pretty sharp as well. The covers are in good shape. The dust jacket is also in decent shape -- it does have some discoloration and minor tearing along the edges.  

Overall, it's still a good copy for anyone wanting this book.  Any questions feel free to e-mail me.
