Concerning the fold-outs one admits to several short closed tears at blank extremities and a couple of others that admit to a mild wrinkling appearance also at blank extremities. Bound in original green cloth with gilt lettering and decorations to spine and gilt decoration to front cover. There is also a blind decoration to back cover. Volume admits to several small bumps to extremities which are also quite worn. Some general rubbing to remainder of cloth which is a little heavier on parts of joints and a few other places at exterior. Minor spotting and light soiling to exterior which generally maintains much of its original charm. A little heavier but not terribly offensive soiling to a small number of pages ~10 and to edges of pages. Some tanning to paper though this isn't offensive either. Binding is generally firm though starting a bit with some separation to front hinge where missing text was and with several minor tears to paper over back hinge. Text clean.
