paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. laminated boards, 1ST EDITION, 1ST PRINT, Book in overall Very Good condition. EXTREMELY SCARCE TITLE. Synopsis From his 1954 debut for Melchester reserves to the helicopter crash which ended his career in 1993, generations of fans have thrilled to the prolific goal-scoring exploits of Roy Race - Roy of the Rovers - the king of soccer. Reproducing original comic-strip action first seen in "Tiger" (1954-1976), and then in "Roy of the Rovers", this book provides a season-by-season celebration of the greatest player in the history of the game. This is a book for everyone who ever dreamt of emulating Roy Race, player-manager and captain of Melchester Rovers. As this book reveals, Roy's ultimate achievement was his ability to conjure up victories against seemingly impossible odds with the awesome finishing power of his famous left-foot `rocket'. Winning trophie, league championships and breaking records appeared to be an everyday occurrence for "Racey", although even Melchester Rovers had their occasional off-days.
