This book was purchased over 10 years ago. I haven't opened it much, so the inside is probably quite clean. However, it's a used item stored and inspected by an amateur, so there may be oversights. In such cases, the actual item takes precedence. It's a guidebook and photo collection about how to raise them. I cannot accept returns or complaints after purchase, so please purchase only if you are satisfied.
