This book was purchased in 1977 by my husband has been in our library since that time. It has never been read. Leather books were always kept on the shelf to maintain their pristine condition. We had other books, almost all of which were identical to what was on the shelf in readable versions And therefore, our leather books are in near perfect condition. They are immaculate. They’ve been sitting in a library shelf since 1977. My husband did adhere the bookplate provided by publisher to one of the first pages. For privacy’s sake I’ve blacked out his name. The blacking out is only on the photo NOT IN THE ACTUAL BOOK. We are in the process however downsizing, which means we must diminish our library by about 75%. We thank you for looking. We’re happy to answer questions and we do combine shipping when requested.
