I purchased this about 15 years ago, but I never read it and just put it away. The box has some scratches, but the book itself is in beautiful condition with no writing or folds. As far as I can tell, there is no discoloration. I took photos of the noticeable scratches on the box. Please consider this, understanding that there may be age-related deterioration (yellowing, odor, etc.) due to storage on a home bookshelf. This is the Japanese translation edition. No individual sales. Thank you.
