Blue hardcover is a vintage classic by Lewis. Covers are good with some some wear to corners and spine ends. Round "nobel"  portrait on front and side with with decorative lines. Covers have mild stains (rings on back), and fading of spine cover. Binding is solid, and gilt lettering is vibrant. Interior covers have dirt along center, but no writing or marks. The remaining pages are excellent with typical aging, but no apparent writing, rips, or dog ears. There is one small vertical line on page 108(see photo). A nice, clean, readable edition of this classic!
