As was usual with this type of experimental binding by the Nonesuch Press, the boards have bowed, causing a small stress tear in the hinge near the head of the spine. The bottom corners have been gently bumped, and there is some general, quite light, soiling. Internally, the book if very clean and tight (and probably seldom opened and certainly unread). .
