All photos taken by me.  I do not use stock images - the book you see is the book you receive.  Please see the photos for condition and read the full description.  Descriptions are not exhaustive but together with the photos I strive to provide an accurate idea of the overall condition, including any significant defects, so you know what you are buying.  This helps avoid 99% of any potential issues or miscommunications.  I couldn’t see any more imperfections in the book but that’s not to say that I didn’t accidentally miss one when flicking through.
