Boards with some overall light shelf and age wear including scuffing, rubbing and bumping to extremities, and some mild discoloration to leather; occasional sunning or discoloration to spines and marbled boards; interiors with infrequent handling wear and mild foxing (concentrated at page edges) with occasional heavier spotting to endpapers and preliminaries; text pages clean; one volume with bookplate. Very good.
