Leather a little rubbed to extremities. Some occasional foxing but generally pages clean; two pages showing some heavy tanning (see accompanying image) presumably due to having a slip of paper or letter being stored there; bottom edge of pages a little rough cut in places.

Overall, a very pleasing example of a Riviere binding – lovely indeed.
