Nowhere names, ballpoint, adhesive tape or notes. However, a number of small tears were professionally repaired. Also on page. 45 a missing piece of paper was nicely restored. (See picture 44) No loose pages, everything is still very tightly fixed. Furthermore some small marks from reading. The four colour plates are in exceptional condition. The corners of the booklet have very few flaws, nice and sharp. (see photos) Cover is almost in perfect condition, beautiful colours. The original spine is also in very good condition, but the spine is restored a bit at the bottom and the top. (See photos 14 & 15) To avoid misunderstandings, I would like to make it clear that the booklet was restored here and there by a professional restoration studio. A picture was taken from every page to avoid misunderstandings. This exceptionally beautiful booklet is packaged with care and sent to the new owner with track & trace.
