Yasunori Terasaki, "The Essence of Human Musical Drama: Opera and Operetta" The cover shows signs of aging. There is staining and yellowing on the top, bottom, and side edges of the pages. There are folded pages (e.g., photos 7-9), but the content is still readable. Please refer to the images for the condition of the book. Please understand that the images may differ slightly from the actual item due to the environment, lighting, and camera used. (The images you are viewing are from the time of listing and may have aged or deteriorated since then.) We have checked for writing, underlining, and stamps beforehand, but we have not completely checked every page. (This is a simple inspection by an amateur.) Depending on the book, there may be folds, stains, dirt, damage, yellowing, scratches, underlining, names written, or stamps. Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing.
