CONDITION:  Very Good

The issues I see with this book involve the cover; scuffing of the paper cover is common with this type of book and this one has a few of those scuffs. See the pictures. The lower left corner of the rear cover, and a few pages at that corner that are slightly formed in. which to me is the most glaring defect in this book. The inside looks Near Fine condition. There is no breaking of the spine, although the front cover has been reinforced inside with clear tape at some time in the past. This is often the case with this type of binding, I have the same thing on my personal copy. All pages appear to be intact; I see no loose pages or markings in the book. See the pictures, they are part of the description.

Grading Standards:

FINE:   No defects, as new when first purchased (Like New)

NEAR FINE:  May have 1 or 2 very minor defects. 

VERY GOOD:  Used condition, same as above only it may have two or three more minor defects such as small tears, scratches, small stains to covers, or minor tears and creases to inside pages.

GOOD:  As above only it may have a split hinge, larger tears to covers, soiling or staining of covers, whatever the defect it should be described in detail.

FAIR:   As above with folds and tears throughout, markings to content.

POOR:   As above with loose bindings, missing and torn pages throughout.

ADDITIONAL INFO:   I am a knife guy who also like books, but has very little experience selling them, just a few I have sold here on AAPK.  I’m not very knowledgeable about grading the condition of used books. I pulled this grading system off the web.
