Description: Condition Continued There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. The dust jacket is in terrific shape. You can see it in the first few photos. It looks perfectly clean. I'm not seeing any conspicuous wear. There are no creases. There is one little crinkle below the top edge of the spine. The flaps are in excellent shape, perfectly clean, no tears no creases. The jacket is NOT price-clipped, not clipped at all. I have always had it in a fitted protective cover.
