Slight rubbing to extremities & bumping to corners & spine tips. The unclipped DJ (featuring a very stereotypically racist representation of black field hands picking cotton, with a black child hugging a basket of cotton in center) is just Good: images are bright & colorful & unflawed, but all corners & spine tips show chipping, with heavy rubbing to extremities; nicely protected in new clear mylar cover free!
