This vintage book is more of a collector's item or for those who enjoy reading old - style literature. When handling it, be gentle as the binding is a bit loose. To maintain its condition, keep it away from direct sunlight as it can cause further discoloration. Also, store it in a dry place to prevent any mold growth. When reading, support the book properly to avoid further loosening of the binding. You can use a bookmark instead of folding the pages to preserve its integrity.
