General wear and minor discoloration to the portfolios covers, all etchings in very good to near fine condition, title page with some creasing to all edges overall in very good plus condition. Shipping: All titles are handled with the utmost care. To protect your purchase I first wrap each book in several layers of extra heavy brown kraft paper. Books are then protected with extra cardboard, bubblewrap etc. before being packaged in a heavy duty priority mail cardboard box. Smaller titles may at times be shipped in carboard envelopes or padded bubblewrap envelopes reinforced by extra cardboard. I put the same amount of time and care into packaging a $30 book as I do a $300 book! I recieve a lot of personal emails from buyers thanking me for the time and care I put into shipping.
