I purchased this, I believe, a special collection of original drawings, when the new Evangelion movie was released. Inside, from illustrations to stories from the voice actors about their character development, it's a book that chronicles the process of how the work that is Evangelion was created. There is a small black spot on the back, but otherwise it's in beautiful condition, with no yellowing or wrinkles. As for shipping, I will use bubble wrap and other materials for simple packaging. If you're an Evangelion fan, please take a look at it m(*_ _)m
