The Explorer World Atlas by Rand McNally (Port of Portland Edition)

A thick, hardcover atlas, titled "The Explorer World Atlas" by Rand McNally. The cover is a rich, dark brown color with a texture that emulates leather, though the material is likely a synthetic binding. The title and author's name are printed in white text on the lower portion of the front cover. Above the title is a stylized depiction of the Western Hemisphere of the Earth, rendered in a metallic silver color. In the upper right corner is a small logo and text that reads "Port of Portland Oregon, USA". This suggests a commemorative or special edition associated with the Port of Portland. The spine is not visible in the image, but based on the thickness, it is a substantial volume likely containing numerous maps and geographical information. The binding appears to be in excellent condition with no visible signs of wear, tears, or corner bumps. The context states it is in "perfect condition" and a "second printing revised 1979". The overall appearance indicates a well-preserved book from the late 1970s, possibly intended as a gift due to the Port of Portland branding. The craftsmanship of the cover and the clear printing of the title and graphics suggest a standard quality production from Rand McNally.
