Book very clean, no names no writing, and only problem of note seems to be what is a very thin vertical wrinkle in one page (originating, I d think, from either the paper manufacturer or the press run). The wrinkle is on the half-title page, which here is the first right-hand page behind the title page. Ahead of the half-title page the tp shows very minor effect of the htp wrinkle. Behind the htp the Dedication page shows a partial somewhat distinct effect + less effect showing to the following additional two pages. DJ clean, no corner clips, partial (rather minor) spine fading to the background color, surface rubbing along extremities & a few very short edge tears/splits repaired w/ archival tape on the unprinted side. DJ front panel s unprinted area has a 2-inch circular gold metallic award seal (very nice condition): 1974 Wrangler Award, National Cowboy Hall of Fame.
