If anything, the copy is better than described, as the listing undersold how tight the binding and clean the pages are. Arrived tightly packaged in a bubble envelope but was sent "naked." Could have used a few layers of paper to protect the book itself — especially as this rare book, published w/o a jacket, has a hand-printed decorated cover and a tipped-in title label on the spine. Not thrilled with Media Mail as the only shipping option. Would have paid extra for Priority Mail. Good value.
