Thisis broken down into NINE SECTIONS. I did not go page by page. I didnotice a printed name in upper right corner of the table of contentspage and some scribbling on this same page in one area. .
Conditionof the outer book: this does show wear along spine seam where bookcover opens. Wear and scuffing along edges;corner points.
Conditionof inner pages. I did not notice any loose or torn pages. Nonotations. If I missed something it was not intentional. Minorsmudge marks here and there. Minor brown discoloration due to age,but I was surprised at how clean the inner pages really are. There isan “old book smell” but not what I would call a “musty basementodor”.
Thereseems to be an awful lot of helpful information included for someonewho wants to be a writer or work for a newspaper. The FIRST SECTIONactually starts out with “The Reporter and His Opportunities” andgoes from that topic further into his career.
