Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. A clean and crisp hardback reprint in a decent, lightly shelf worn dust jacket which has been price-clipped at the bottom of its front inside flap. No previous ownership names. There is a bit of foxing to the top edge, but the green boards are clean and fresh, the hinges are sound and secure and the contents are clean and complete, with all the illustrations present. The clipped dust jacket is clean, but a bit creased, rubbed and chipped at the extremities. Overall, a nice hardback copy in a jacket with some shelf wear. This small volume in the Wayside and Woodland series will be properly packed. Seller Inventory # ABE-1552134893058
