The spine shows some wear to the top and bottom and the otherwise clean cover has some slight bumping to the corners. The free-front pages has an ink gift dedication and is dated 1908. There is some foxing on the preliminaries and otherwise some scattered foxing through the book except for a few pages where it is more obvious. The foxing on the pages is most apparent on the pages opposite the card backing for the tipped-in pictures.The colour, tipped-in illustrations, importantly, are clean and bright and truly spectacular to look at. Each one is covered by a titled leaf of tissue paper. There are some black and white illustrations. The binding is tight. A very good copy.
