My Uncle (RIP), a veterinary professor at UC Davis, CA would get a National Geographic or Smithsonian or other Nature/History/Culture book every birthday, Christmas or anniversary from his Mother.  He seldom even opened them to read.  You can see that I do not open the book fully to photograph the inside pages because most of the book has never been opened.  If the pages, the cover, and the dustcover are perfect/zero damage I list it as "brand new" (never read).  If the dust cover is slightly damaged, or if there is a name written inside the cover, I reduce to "like new".  If there are other flaws I reduce to "very good".  I think you can see pretty well from the pictures.

All shipping is flat rate (media mail).

The smaller books will be in bubble wrap inside a poly envelope.  Larger books with be in boxes with bubble wrap.

Thank you!
