Fabulous, large, glamorous.

Flipping through, it looks to me that it goes into detail about travels possibly and entertaining, dinner planning, etc

Has a little bookmark inside, original.

Now, I want to disclose all that I detect about its condition:

This cover is padded, and there are indentations, about 3 of them, about the size of a thumb, pressed into the front cover.(I suspect that the book served as a platform, and something sat on top of it for a while.)

It is sturdy, not at all flimsy, and the spine has held up nicely; however, there is some fraying on the corners. No bends, thankfully.

All of this is visible in the photos, btw - please have a look.

The ribbon bookmarks are quite wrinkled and fraying.

There is foxing and food stains from fingers inside the covers, the first pages; and I did notice at least two dirty finger stains while flipping through the pages.

On the back, it is faint, but you can see some discoloration of the gold, probably due to moisture.

Having said all that, I don't mean to downplay it's condition. I think all these imperfections are minor. I just like to disclose such things.

I think this book was stored lying on it's back, horizontally, which is a good thing and likely helped most to preserve the integrity of the spine.
