Perfect for a unique gift or a new addition to your own collection. This book is pre-owned, but it still appears to be in acceptable condition, in my opinion. However, it vintage and does show some signs of heavy wear that could be considered damage. For example, there is some rust on the binder tabs as shown in the photos. Sold As Is. Before you buy, you should know this book doesn't just have "apple" recipes in it. I would be happy to provide any additional details you may need upon request. Please look over the photos carefully before you buy this, as I unfortunately can not accept any returns at my current address.
