A UK uncorrected proof copy - in a wrapper.
WRAPPER : The wrapper on this copy is unfaded, complete and unclipped. It is heavily worn at the upper edges which have been reinforced internally ( and externally at the spine ) by sellotape. Whilst I think the wrapper has been with the book from its issue, I am unsure whether it is a proof wrapper or not.
BOOK : The book is square and tight. There are no previous ownership inscriptions. The covers are clean, though toned at the upper edges. The lower corners are very slightly bruised. The pages are clean. The closed page edges are lightly toned and are a little dusty. The binding is tight - no cracked hinges. No remainder marks. Uncommon.
