Being a Navy Veteran, I am interested. I would like to see a pic to see what conditoin it is in. If you could include one of the inside front cover where the writting is it would be most delightful.

Your welcome. The book is actually in pretty good shape. Its still all in tack and not coming apart from the spine. No torn pages just yellowed from age. Has a cloth covered hard back which ive only seen a couple time on nurses journals and medical bools before. I have couple of those from a past relative that are falling apart from use. This one looks more worn from sitting on a shelf around the covers edges and corners. But not worn all the way thru.
