Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition (First Published 1953). 71 (unless I miscounted) Figures and Diagrams (Illustrations). You can see in the photographs just how terrific the covers of this nearly 64-year-old book look. They are a very nice red color. There isn't any soiling. The gilt lettering on the spine is very bright and unworn. The unseen edges also show no wear at all. The only imperfections are 1) two smooth scratches on the front that can be seen or not seen depending upon how the light hits the book, and 2) a crease at the bottom of the front just above the right corner. That crease is limited to the cover, doesn't affect any of the interior. The actual four corners of the book also show no wear. The book is well bound, there aren't any tears 's to be found, no page is loose. The pages are also exceptionally clean, no stains anywhere. No spotting. There aren't any markings in the book. No attachments. I didn't see any creases or dogeared corners. The next to last page of the index has a little bit of crinkling in the middle, absolutely not affecting one's ability to read. The last page of the index is a little too tightly bound to the rear end paper, causing a little bit of crinkling between the two, but again absolutely not affecting the ability to read the print. Not too many dust jackets look this good after so many years. Take a look at the first three photographs. There is only tiny bit of edge wear, the top spine end has a wrinkle. The dust jacket has the same crease that the book has right above the front bottom right-hand corner. There's a speck of loss at the rear bottom edge adjacent to the middle edge (third photo). The jacket is quite clean, just a light amount of handling soiling. The flaps are in excellent shape. The bottom of the front flap is clipped. However the price is at the bottom of the rear flap which is not clipped. Next to the clipped area there is an Associated Book Publishers Ltd price sticker with a price in pounds. The dust jacket will be fitted with a protective cover. This is by far the least expensive of the copies of this book for sale that are in decent or better condition.
