Very loved book. Some creases and stains on front cover. Its a heavy duty cover for a paperback book but is paperback. No rips to any pages, only marks on pages are from paper clips making an indent. Refer to photos.

A June of 1943 report of insects found in Kanas. Wow. This was my Dad's book. It is cloth bound and stapled in excellent shape. Some staining on top right corner of about 10 first pages. Probably from coffee. Book measures 9x51/2×3/4 inch. A very neatly arranged book with great illustrations.
