"A Swiftly Tilting Planet" in NF- condition with light edge wear to head and foot of backstrap and faint soiling on top and outer edge. Barely discernible evidence of moisture at foot of spine- found it due to the inside of the jacket. Jacket VG due to moisture stain at foot of spine 3/8" high off the bottom edge- about 2 1/2" long, centering on the spine. Otherwise, just some minor edge wear. "A Wind in the Door" in NF condition with edge wear to top corners and head and foot of the backstrap. Very faint evidence of water damage to outer foot of backstrap- mainly in a slight lightening of the black dye on the cloth. Jacket has almost identical water stain in the same spot as "A Swiftly Tilting Planet"; otherwise would be Fine. The slipcase itself is still solid, though the front edges are damaged near the top, and there is cracking of the exterior finish along the bottom back edge. Plus the standard rubbing and light scratching.
