Condition: Please zoom in on photos carefully as they are part of the description. I am human and sometimes miss a thing or 2, but I try to mention the book's main faults. all of my books are VERY OLD and have 100+ years of wear to varying degrees
very good plus condition.... for its age
boards /covers - very secure- some wear to the leather, a very small ding to the back cover [ VERY small]
textblock- pages very secure
outer joints- very good, minor splitting towards the top
spine ends- top good, a bit wear to the bottom [ see last picture]
tips- just a bit of wear
inner hinges- very good
pages- generally in very good & very clean condition - about /apx 10% of the pages with moderate to heavy spotting {shown is one of the worse ones I could find], and apx 10-15% with light spotting
writing- none
rips /folds- none that I saw, but with so many pages, there might be a few small ones
other- end papers a bit dirty , gilt remain quite bright except for the edges of the boards
a "must have" for your library!
