The gilt print on the spine has faded and is fading on the front cover. At some point the book has been stored in a damp spot and though not drastic, it shows the signs: the front board is slightly warped, and the plates have damp stains along the edges. The front hinge is partially exposed, though this does not affect the binding, which remains solid. Number 45 of 100 copies. Includes Adamson's bookplate on the front paste down.
