Stated First Edition, First Printing: Beautiful Near fine book with a scarce original stunning Near fine dust jacket.
The book is in beautiful Near fine condition with crisp blue boards, with red titles to spine. The boards are clean, a vibrant blue and still maintain their original sheen. The book has sharp corners and no edgewear. The end papers have some offsetting and some of the common staining, but have no owner names, and no bookplates. The internal pages are overall clean, bright and flat with three pages with small handling mark/stains, otherwise the pages are unusually clean.
The original first edition dust jacket has benefited from slight restoration to the very outer spine tips and as such presents as a near fine example. The jacket is bright with highly vibrant colors, and but only slight toning to the rear panel. The dust jacket has No rips, No chips, No stains, No rubbing and No foxing. The dust jacket is NOT price clipped and has a stated price of $2.95. Please see detailed images. Stunning, handsome jacket presenting the book beautifully on the shelf.
A very scarce copy, with this title becoming increasingly difficult to locate.
