About This Item
Geological Society of South Africa, 1986. De Luxe Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. This is de luxe edition number 357 of 750 made. The boards are bound in de luxe skivertex red, and they are pristine and square, with vibrant gold gilt to the front, back, and spine. The dust jacket is shelf rubbed, marked and edge worn with some small closed tears along the top edges near the spine. There is some slight surface damage at the back near the spine as well. Despite this, the dust jacket remains bright and whole. Internally, the front end page is ever so slightly marked from the dust jacket, but the pages within are neat, crisp and complete. There are no inscriptions or annotations. The binding is tight, and it is presented beautifully in cellophane. JV.K. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
