Dark green boards with light green and gilt details on front cover and spine, as well as a color illustrated pastedown at the center of the front. Gilt on spine faded. Bumping to corners, edges of spine. Some soiling on back cover, light soiling around page edges. Binding is cracked, all in tact except one color plate that is present tucked inside the book. Lovely illustrations throughout.
