Maps are generally very good with an occasional small spot or stain. There is a two-inch tear in the lower right portion of the Turkey in Asia map. A few other maps have tiny lower centerfold splits or minor tears that are confined to the blank margins. The hinge is starting and the covers are bumped and worn. There are some pencil notations on the inside front cover.
