Binding age worn, covers detached from text block, text leaves loose and shaken, spine paper splitting, some old staining, book has been well handled but nothing severe or unsightly, book remains overall entirely attractive as an object.

Still attractive on the shelf. The book displays a pleasing and unique age patina and is in overall nice antiquarian condition, any age flaws which may be present seem easy to overlook or forgive.
