The price-clipped dust wrapper is in vg+ condition, clean and fresh, with very slight bumping to the top extremities, a crease to the laminate down the side of the spine and light handling marks.

The binding is tight.

Internally, the content is clean and unmarked and in fine condition.

A very nice copy indeed.
