CONDITION NOTES:

ALL PAGES ARE ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES and are EXTREMELY BRITTLE/FRAGILE. The slightest of touch flakes pieces off. MUST BE HANDLED WITH CARE.

All trade cards are all glued to pages (I'm told there's a method involving soaking them to remove cards but have never tried this) and their condition is as shown in the pictures. Please inspect them carefully. Front cover is in okay shape but does have moderate overall wear (see pics). NO binding present. Rear cover also missing. I cut & duct taped two pieces of sturdy cardboard together to serve as a replacement cover (mainly just to protect the pages during transit but certainly may come in handy). See pics.

DIMENSIONS & WEIGHT:

Cover measures 10-3/4" wide x 13-7/8" tall. Please see ruler in pictures for size/scale reference. Additional measurements shall be provided upon request.

Total weight is 2 lbs. 8.5 oz..
