The illustrated dustjacket on this vintage hardcover rates very good or near fine. The jacket adds much to the historical feel and value of this title. There is some visible rubbing on the edges of the dustjacket, early wear to a decorative jacket which has long been protected in archival quality mylar. Book itself is like new inside. This lovely book is NOT priceclipped, NEVER library, NOT of course a worthless book of the month edition. /lh
