First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Collectable, good. 1st. VG book in poor jacket, first printing. Very large hardcover, illustrated paper covered boards, orange fabric spine, illustrated endpapers, stated first edition with "4-1" and "A-Q" codes, jacket has same illustration, not price-clipped. CONDITION: Book exterior very nice except the paper on the most of the outer edge of front cover and about an inch of the lower edge of both covers is worn through, name in ink on title page, large pancil name on prior page won't completely erase, interior otherwise like new. Jacket has some edgewear including 1" chip missing at base of spine plus the front flap is separated from the rest of the jacket and the upper two inches of the rear flap is worn through, apparently due to the same heavy rubbing that damaged the outer edge of the book cover (some of the edge of the flaps is missing, so repair would require more than simply taping the flap to the rest of the jacket.). Overall, rather nice book in not so nice jacket. BOOKSELLER: We are a small family business selling fine new and pre-owned books online since 1999, providing professional service and individual attention to your order, daily shipments and sturdy packing.
