Carol Strickler American Woven Coverlet is a hard to find out of print 200 page paperback book from 1987. It is in good used condition. Good for being a vintage paperback. Cover has wear as shown in the photos. Some scuff edges wear to spine. Minor curve to book. Minor crease wear. Minor soil spots to cover minor aging to cover. Inside faint foxing tan starting mostly on inner cover page and the pages next to it. It is faint best close up that shows it #7 and #8. Minor age spots on pages nothing major. No missing pages or tears to the pages. No heavy corner wear to pages there is a few that have minor corner crease marks. No writing on the pages however page 41 has either a best print line error or a mistake by a pen line. See last close up there is a thin line that goes thru the word dye. No foul odors just smells like old ink to me when I smell closely. Photos are in natural sunlight.
