Woah! Rare find! It's almost 100 years old man! You going to keep it in a special environment? Otherwise, it may have fungus problems.

Better yet. Only borrowed 4 times in the 16-year span.
I think the less humid environment in China will preserve the book better than here in SG. Good find!

Yeah, once in a while the school library would clear the old books, I think this fella got it close to free and made a few hundreds times margin.;p
