There is gilt lettering on the spine. Please see the photographs provided for further reference. Inside, the pages are lightly tanned and thin in consistency. There is darker tanning on pages 206 to 209. There is foxing on the pastedowns, endpapers, flyleaf, half-title page and the last page. Besides this, the pages are overall clean and neat, with just the occasional small marks and only the very occasional light crease. There are no rips to the pages. As aforementioned, there is a pen inscription on the front pastedown, but no further pen or pencil written inside this book. There is a light crack in the gutter to the side of the half-title page and between the back pastedown and back free endpaper. The rest of the pages are tightly bound. There are no loose or missing pages and so, all 1238 pages are present. Please study the photos carefully as to the condition of this book, as they do form part of the description.
