Cover is a little rough, some fraying along the binder edge, the first eight pages have some light staining on the upper portion of the pages (see pictures)Theres some dogearing but nothing too severe, and a few pages have notes, all the pages are bound together nicely, no loose pages and no torn off pages either,Still a very nice manual for information on the Farmall tractorsI don't know the year of this publication but if you have any questions please message me, Thanks!
