The Promise of Space by Arthur C. Clarke ( Pyramid | 1st. Printing | 1970 )

Overall condition is acceptable. The front cover has significant edge wear with chipping along the edges in some places, and in the upper, right corner. There is also creasing along the bottom edge and parallel to the spine as caused by reading. The back cover is much the same as the front with chipping on the edges, dog ear creasing in the upper, left corner, and along the spine and bottom edge. There are scuff marks on both covers. Despite the condition of the covers, the spine is remarkably preserved with a barely visible vertical crease, some scuffing, and moderate edge wear with some chipping. The interior pages have discolored with age.
