Astra Castra: Experiments and Adventures in the Atmosphere

This one is in very poor condition and would need the attentions of a good bookbinder to realise its potential. Blue cloth boards with faded gilt lettering to spine. Boards are marked and generally grubby. Corners are bumped, edges are worn. Spine is detached, the cloth is split and stained with quite a bit of loss. Binding has failed. Endpages are detached. Frontispiece and tissue are detached along with the title page. From the preface onward, the textblock is held although grubby with some waterstain. 530 pp. Additional photos are available upon request. When securely packed this item will weigh in the region of 4150g. (YBP Ref: 028417:1-G6)
