This book is still in good condition.
It is a former library book so it still has things on it that a library book would have.
There is some browning to the pages.
Pages are still tight.
Covers and edges show signs of wear.
There is no dust jacket, but there is the clear plastic on the book. The paper from the company that put the plastic on is still on the back of the book.
