Yup, mine is in pretty worn. Now it has patina just like my guns.

hmm- mine sits handy- i use it fairly often-

but the binding is intact -

maybe the the one puppy's chewing the corners off it relieved stress on the spine

I asked a dealer at the most recent Tulsa show if I could look at his serialization book. He's a Parker guy and goes to several shows so I am sure this book has seen a lot of miles and use. In any case when he pulled it out from under the table I am not sure what adjective would accurately describe the amount of use/abuse this thing has seen. I'm certain it has been through several wars based upon appearances, and lost most of them. But that binding was still in tact and solid as it could be, all the pages appeared to be hanging in there as well.
