I believe I purchased this from a used bookstore specializing in art a long time ago. The condition hasn't been good since then. Overall, there is yellowing, stains, scratches, and dirt. The yellowing appears more pronounced than in the photos. I think it's fine for use as a reference, but it's probably not suitable for a collection. Also, there are areas on the cover where tape has been applied, as well as scratches and areas where the color has peeled off. The back cover also has scratches and folds. There may be other oversights. It's an old book, and the condition isn't great, so I would appreciate it if you could understand. I plan to wrap it in bubble wrap and ship it via Yu-Packet Post.
