Condition Details: This copy shows several signs of age and previous ownership that should be noted. Please see the following details and refer to the final image provided in the gallery for a close-up of the specific flaws mentioned below: • Binding & Spine: Original blue/grey cloth boards. The spine exhibits significant sunning/fading and a small 1/4" tear at the head of the cloth. • Gutter & Hinge: There is a slight separation starting at the very top of the gutter between the front matter and the title page. While the text block is not loose, the binding is under stress at this point. • Water Damage: Evidence of old moisture exposure is present in the form of a dampstain and associated light waving (cockling) along the inner gutter of the title page and preliminary pages. This is dry and stable. • Interior: Aside from the front-matter moisture, the main 990-page text block remains clean, tight, and free of writing or highlighting. • Dust Jacket: Not included. This copy bears the "E-B" date code on the copyright page, confirming the May 1950 first state. Despite the cosmetic and structural wear, it is a complete and valuable reference copy of this foundational work.
