The report's frontispiece is a 20 x 7" panoramic photograph of a portion of Camp Lee. Published by the Virginia Geological Survey.

Condition: B+

The two folding maps at the back are very good with light toning and a few tiny splits at fold intersections. Text and other plates are very good with occasional light toning, mostly in the blank margins. Paper wrappers are toned at top along with a previous owner's stamp.
