The pages are clean, the closed page edges are unmarked. No foxing. Both the front and the back free endpapers are creased. No inscriptions. The sewn binding is secure, and all pages are firmly attached. Bookseller's ticket -"The Peking Bookshop, Grand Hotel des Wagons-Lits, Peking" - to rear pastedown.
