Unclipped DJ with remarkably minimal dulling to colors but an ex-library copy bearing some evidence of its former life: ghost imprint of catalogue sticker on spine colophon, general wear along edges, some wrinkling to the jacket overall (not moisture or water damage-related), a small, closed tear near price on front flap with tape residue at bottom flap, closed tear at top of rear flap & minute touch of paper loss at bottom of flap; cloth boards have ghosting from prior tape application, a slight push to spine, bumping to upper right corner of front, stamped lettering & illustration still sharp; flyleaf has indext # in pen, stamp on title page, index # on copyright page, rear endpaper has stamp, tape remnants, faded stamp at top-edge of textblock; binding firm, text unmarked.
