Good condition. The first page of one of the Henry Clarke fashion editorials has half a page torn out. Light vertical crease to some pages within, this diminishes throughout. The spine has light wear but has been reinforced. All pages tight. Complete other than the torn page mentioned. See photos of spine and back cover - it's sturdy and in otherwise excellent condition.
Scarce collector's item - insurance is included in postage for all customers.
