Very scarce, antique, over a century old martial arts book in overall good condition. Exterior shows some minor wear like rubs and frays at the cloth of the binding to the outer edges of the boards and spine. Design to the front cover shows some darkening/toning and a bit of loss from age but is overall still clear. Interior of the book is overall clean with some minor soiling or foxing spots throughout with all contents legible. Front endpaper has former owner's pastedown bookplate and adjacent front endpaper has former owner's name written in ink. Book's binding is tight and the book is complete with all pages present and none coming loose, detached or missing.

Book totals 212 pages, measures approximately 9 1/4 x 6 1/4 x 3/4 inches and weighs about 1 pound.
