A complete issue, with noted faults. Green cover of dancing figure is paper cut-out was designed by Matisse and printed on horribly thin paper. Most all I have ever seen are defective in one way or another, especially along the spine. This copy has masking tape along most of the outside of the spine on the green paper print. The green print is fairly soiled.
