Hold the book gently by the spine to avoid loosening the tight binding. For storage, place it on a dry and flat shelf, away from direct sunlight to prevent further foxing on the dust jacket and pages. Try to keep it away from humid areas as moisture can damage the book. If the dust jacket gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe it. Don't try to repair the loss of material on the bottom edge yourself as it might cause more damage. Just enjoy this rare piece of literary history!
