Binding:
Embossed surface-colored paper-covered vertical slipcase with gold tooling

Lower layer of marbled paper is visible underneath peeling seam. I’ve most often seen these vertical slipcases associated with maps—those meant for books tend to have at least one rounded side to accommodate a book spine.
