Ghosting on end papers, red pencil checkmarks in margins, cover and pages very good. Dust jacket darkened, especially spine, edge worn and chipped. A fun collection of Quaker humor with a strong flavor of the kindly, candid Quaker philosophy mixed with the genuinely funny situation. This is a special pre-publication copy inscribed by the authors to Richmond Miller of Friends Central Bureau in Philadelphia. Includes correspondence from the authors and publisher to Richmond, a typed copy of his review of the book, and his related notes on a card from George School announcing the appointment of Eric Curtis as Head of School in 1967, and on the back end papers.
