Exterior of the Book

The dictionary is made of leather and has deteriorated since its creation in 1755. The leather is cracked and discoloured and the binding is fraying. There is a split near the top of the spine that seperates the spine and the cover and that stretches almost one third of the way down the front. The facade is blank and the writing on the spine has faded but is still legible. The rear of the book is reminscent of the front of the book but with slightly different colouration.
