Poor. VERY fragile paper, which is very discoloured. Holes, tears and stains throughout. BUT, amazingly interesting and in my mind important. Full of fabulous information regarding the game and players at the time. Also has plenty of adverts such as a full pages Dewar's Whisky advert, a great advert for Sherrin footballs on page 10, McKenzies Cocoa on page 13, Rocke's Eucalyptus on page 15, a great limerick to do with Bosisto's on page 21, and the clincher for me is page 28, full page with a picture of the late G. H. Bennett, president of the Richmond Football Club!!!! (I didn't know that!) Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
