Condition:
Very Good Condition for this vintage war history.  Leather-look cover looks nice....only minimal sign of wear, mainly dulling of gold lettering on spine.  No owner name.   Very little or no apparent age-tanning to paper, which remains strong.  Hinges/binding are strong/tight...extra hinge support given front and back.  Small edge-tears or chips found and repaired on 11 pages.  Two pages show very minor soiling (see last pic).  Otherwise, interior is clean, without marks, creases, or other stains or tears.  Book is strong/sturdy for normal use.  Collectible.
