Condition:
Inside excellent, very fresh and flawless; clean with no marks and with no foxing. Outside with excellent spine and well-preserved rear side, front with traces of a pen; apparently, someone used the book as a writing surface (it's nothing serious, but worth mentioning, the impressions are only visible when viewed against the light). Inside in very fine condition, outside in fine condition, so overall fine condition.

Great photo catalogue book by Ralph Gibson - in fresh condition.
