First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good-. First Edition. 270 Pages. Stated: First published November, 1934. The dust jacket is not price-clipped. This is a first edition novel about a boy being shipped to a new foster family in PA and his many adventures. The book's dust jacket has four worn corners, some repaired tears, worn areas along both the top and bottom edges, a small hole on the frony cover, and a horizontal crease along its bottom edge. The interior book has a light stain across its front cover's top edge and a light reddish stain across part of the closed book's top page edge. Outside of those items however, there are no further visible detriments, or extraneous markings, stickers or distractions throughout the book and hence all of the printing is in a well-preserved condition and the book's bindings remain tight and therefore sound. If you order this good fun novel for both younger and older readers from us, we will carefully wrap it up in either foam or bubble wrap, then pad and box it and ship it right away to you with both insurance and tracking on it.
