This publication was printed on manual typewriter and thus some letters of the text are lighter than others and seem faded. 255x205mm.

Cover slightly curved. Cover stained. Cover corners, spine edges and hinges rubbed. Spine slightly stained. Text block edges yellowing and slightly stained. Few pages edge slightly stained - NO damage to text. Pages slightly yellowing. [SUMMARY]: This extremely rare historical report is otherwise in good condition.
