#53 comic is in lovely condition with some expected signs of age and use.
There is some creasing here and there to the front covers, and to the inner pages from use. The bottom, front and back cover, shows some crinkling, as well as some yellowing. This could be from use, age, or perhaps some light water damage. There are a few small tears here and there, only to the areas of crinkling at the bottom. There are further marks here and there from age and use, both to the covers and inside the comic. The original owner's name is written on the front cover, but I see no further pen/pencil marks inside. It comes with its original advert leaflet inside.
