General Notes

Note

Notes: Condition Notes: June 29, 2000 - Edges of the soft cover are very worn and fragile, which has allowed the cover to come loose from the pages, and has also resulted in some bent corners on the pages. There also appears to be some water damage that has resulted in some staining to some of the pages. Status: OK
