hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Illustrated by Walter Stackpool. Jacket had several short tears and creases along the edge and some sunfading. Book itself has a solid binding. Interior pages are crisp and clean, free of any markings save for some pencil rubbing on the first page. 128 pages. 10.25" X 7.5".
