A large fragment of a coat of arms in red has been bound into the rear, attached to a thick piece of cardboard.

This volume is in good shape, with some rubbing and leather peeling to the binding, with the spine being slightly pushed inwards. The title is soiled. There are occasional dark stains, mostly to the upper margins of some pages. One leaf has had a lower margin cropped, obscuring a word. One of the rear endpapers is holding on by a cord. One section has light and faded staining at the lower margins.
