New York, NY Capricorn Books, 1965. Paperback Scattered UNDERLINING AND MARGINALIA IN INK. Else, Very Good in Wraps: shows indications of careful use: shows light wear to the extremities; mild rubbing overall and faint soiling to the white background fields of the panels; a faint crease to the backstrip; former owner's name inscribed at the upper corner of the title page; the binding remains square and secure. Free of creases to the panels. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Clearly, this is a flawed copy, but remains a useful reading copy, structurally sound and tightly bound.
