Condition

The cover, green background with gold lettering and design, is in good overall condition, with spot stains and scuffs, but no prominent stains or color fade. The spine, with shallow fraying to its ends, is straight. The inside cover gutters are cracked, but the binding is tight, with no loose or missing pages. The pages are clean, with all the photos and all text unfaded. There are no stamps or other attachments. I've found no writing. Some of the outside edges are ragged, with a few shallow tears from the cutting open of the pages, but there are no deep tears or notable creases.
