About This Item
Alvin Staufer. Used - Very Good. Cloth, dj. Significant wear to dj, including foxing and chipping at extremities and some loss (approx. one-inch) at spine ends. Minor shelf wear to boards. Expected age-toning to paste downs and text block, but text and images remain clean and bright. Altogether quite sound. Very Good.
