This book is in very good condition. There is wear on the edges and covers. The binding is tight. The pages are lightly yellowed, but this is to be expected considering the age of this book, it is 96 years old. The only mark in the book is an inscription on the front flyleaf with the names of the giver and recipient as well as Paris, June 1929.

Very Good: Describes a book that shows some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Good: Describes the average used book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Fair: Worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. Binding, jacket (if any), etc., may also be worn. All defects should be noted.
