[Wade, 194] Blue/gray paper-covered boards with black titling; linen spine with a paper label. Clean text; 132 pages. Mild bumping, light soil; the spine label is rubbed at its edges and has a chip; head and foot have some smudging. While some of the pages in this copy have been left unopened, the tops of several towards the front are torn due to careless opening. (Quercus speculates that perhaps the vandal realized the mistaken technique and gave up!) A solid copy of one of the harder-to-find titles, if not a true beauty. In an archival plastic protector.
