This 1944 is really very good. The front board is great and unmarked with bright gilt while the spine gilt is fading bit still clearly visible. Hinges are amazing and internally the pages are bright white and the book has an unread feel to it however there are a couple of minor points to note as follows: The initial AWM are on page 3 in blue pen in the top right hand corner as shown and there are some small white dots to the rear board. Still a nice 8/10 for the year. Many thanks, James P and P via Royal Mail 24 Tracked
