#223 comic is in lovely condition with some expected signs of age and use.
There is a bit of a hole to the front cover, beneath the left part of the rainbow/logo. There are some signs of age and use, including some yellowing/discolouration marks towards the edges of the pages. There is some slight creasing here and there, and some signs of previous folds that have flattened out over time. There is a tiny tear to the top of an old fold on the back cover. The original owner's name is written on a small tag which is stuck to the upper right corner, but I see no further pen/pencil marks inside. I would not recommend the sticker be removed in case it tears the page.
