Add to basket8vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece, text browning at edges, neat inscription on dedication; decorative cloth blocked in silver, backstrip lettered in silver, one corner lightly bruised else a very good, tight copy in price-clipped dustwrapper, the latter lightly age-soiled and with minor loss at lower edge of front panel. The bibliography of this school tale is confused. The author is given variously as W.E. Eastways (dustwrapper and title) and W.W. Eastways (series catalogue on dustwrapper rear panel). BLPC gives the latter and records two editions, neither of which matches the present copy. Here the pagination matches the first edition of 1949, though the imprint is Children's Press (not Collins). A scarce survival in this condition.
