My Notes/Comments and more detail about condition:
I used to sell a lot of antiques and varied items over the years on eBay - going back to 1998.  I now try to stick to vintage costume jewelry, so I have a lot of collector identification guides for items like pottery, glass, dolls, cast iron, toys and all kinds of collectibles that I no longer need.  I'm going to begin selling some of them tonight and should have most on by the end of the week.  Many of them are out of print (oop) because Collector Books stopped publishing.
I took a photo of the Table of Contents
I never needed this so it's basically unread.  I never came across glass figural items to sell.  I used to buy these wholesale from the publishers to sell on eBay, so I kept some when I thought I'd have use for them in the future.
I believe it's out of print
very minor signs of wear on the cover
I did write my name and date on the inside cover, see photos
red dot along bottom of the book, see last photo
very clean and
brand new inside
I did take a photo of a small bit of damage near the spine, the corner of another book must have poked it (second to last photo)
It's not perfect but when you get it you'll see how fresh it is inside and it feels new
I apologize for the awkward angles of some of the inside photos - it's hard to hold a book open and take a photo at the same time without letting the book flop open (which might damage the spine).
Thank you very much for looking.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions you have.  Have a good day!
