Amazing condition for its age. This has some shelf wear and a tear at the top of the spine. Binding is still complete with no loose pages. There is slight yellowing on the front and back inside covers and a little on the 1st title page. Otherwise the pages are mostly white and I did not observe markings or notes within. Please review the pictures to judge overall condition. This was in storage for a long time so an old book smell is present and has noticeably dissipated since it has now seen the light of day after about 50 years of storage. Acquired from an old collector along with many other rare railroad related books already listed.
Ships safe and secure.
