In shabby condition overall with flaws. Wear and tear, spotty discolouration, tattering and tears, the cover is torn off and the back cover is missing. Staples have started to rust (though they are still intact) and there is some light rust transference to surrounding paper. General age discolouration/tanning throughout, with heavier tanning to page edges, dog earring to page corners. Internal pages are otherwise good with no major flaws - no major stains or tears.
