The front flap is clipped at the bottom corner and if there was a price there it is gone. The interior the book is in very good condition. The pages are very clean. Scrolling through, I didn't see any soiling. There aren't any conspicuous creases. There are no markings. There are no attachments. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. 'Giles Lytton Strachey was an English writer and critic.
