Reddish brown leather-esque binding. Both the front and back covers are worn and cracked due to use and age. Loss of color especially around the spine and corners. Gilded edges, but have faded a little bit with time. Foxing spots on the edges and on the first few and last few pages. There's a piece of tape on page 8 since it was torn. Staining and foxing on the endpapers and craks visible. The back paste down is coming up a tiny bit in the bottom right corner.
