    A beautiful book delivered as described. It was very nicely wrapped and received an upgrade on shipping. Great value. Thank you. Our USPS postman in Chicago is too lazy for scanning packages that he delivers.

    This is an excellent example of pop-up art. the book is better than described. Packed well. shipping costs and arrival time were all quite reasonable. For a 50-year old book, this is a great value.
