-LIMITED EDITION-


This is a 559-page hardcover book.  The page edges are rough-cut, and gold gilded on the top edge.  The front hinge is cracked, but remains attached and has strength (this could easily be fixed by someone with the know-how).  The binding is very solid, and the rear hinge is in great shape.  The pages have some light tanning from age, but are otherwise clean.  This is a very cool book.
