    Condition: POOR condition in the original black and gold elaborately illustrated boards. The front cover is detached, but present, one tipped in plate is missing (p 159), some fraying and wear to the edges of the boards and the corners. Other than the missing plate the contents are very good - and this is a still appealing copy of a beautiful book at a reasonable price.
