Seller's Description:
VG+ Wrappers. Bright red spine and rear cover, bright red front cover with illustrated portrait of Drovetti are all clean, bright, and glossy. Book has just a trace of rubbing at the head and tail of the spine and at the extreme tips of a couple of the outside corners. Book would be a pretty easy NF grade, but it has a coupld faint smudges on the lower edge of the textblock and one on the very bottom of the outside edge-not pronounced enough that they'll jump out, but you'll find them if you look for them. Binding is straight and tight. Aside from the couple mentioned smudges, pages are clean, white, and crisp. 372 pages. Illustrated with a frontis portrait of Drovetti and some illustrations throughout.
