About This Item
Owen Letcher, 1931. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Metcalfe, Margaret; Whymper, Elizabeth; Aston, A.A. Ex-lib. The boards are rubbed, marked and edge worn. The top and bottom edges of the spine are creased and beginning to fray. There is also some light surface damage. Despite this, the boards are strong and square. Internally, there is an ex-libris bookplate on the front pastedown and a stamp marking on the front end page. There are no other markings or inscriptions within, and the pages are crisp, clean and complete. The binding remains tight, and the book attractive. JV.K. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
