Condition

Please study images with care, they constitute a significant part of the item description.

Some light grubbiness to previously exposed fold edges and faces, not too bad.

Some rubbing to folds and corner folds, not too bad.

Folds mostly in original format.

Overall, this map is in extraordinarily good condition.
