Condition and Treatment: 

Our copy lacks covers, the pages have come loose, and the brittle paper is breaking into shards.  The title page is torn and needs repair; the brittle paper should be encapsulated in mylar for protection; and a custom protective enclosure must be built to house the fragile item.
