There is a small chip at the lower edge of the front cover with some paper loss. This is in a border area so it does not affect any of the content on any of the pages. There is also a small edge tear just below this paper chip. It does not touch upon any of the content. Small tear to back edge. Otherwise the program is very clean and nice looking. Very desirable 1906 Nineteenth Army Corps program. |
