The Exploration of Space by Arthur C. Clarke 1951; good, vintage, hardcover book in acceptable dust jacket; the book is clean, tight, square, and -- but for a sticker on the front free end page (see photo) -- free of any markings showing well thumbed and age-toned pages (see photos), and significant bumping and rubbing along the board edges (see photos) but otherwise showing only light additional wear; unclipped dust jacket shows moderate shelf wear, including significant age-toning (see photos), heavy wear along the edges (see photos), particularly, a significant open tear along the fore edge of the front cover (see photo), heavy tearing to the corners (see photo), and heavy tearing to the head and foot of the spine (see photo) but remains in good condition.
