Cover has moderate scattered aging with some small surface paper rubs, few stain spots on back. Pages lightly aged but for the most part remain clean. Album itself VG/Fine. Nearly all of the cards remain quite bright and clean with just small traces of margin wear/aging. For the most part, corners remain sharp. As mounted, cards grade Exc.-Mint to N. Mint. Cards in much nicer condition than usually found when mounted.
