Bobbs Merrill Company, 1953. Hardcover. Very Good Plus/Good. 7x5x1. Lawrence Dresser. Great Vintage Hardback Childhood of Famous Americans that is 71 Years Old! Book with Dust Jacket. Book itself is in Very Good Plus condition with a tight binding and mostly clean crisp pages. Inside text appears to have had little use. No writing or markings inside or outside of the book. There is a darkening strip inside the front and back cover, where it appears a book mark may have been stored. Outside cloth covers are very nice, showing only very minor wear. Dust Jacket is NOT price clipped ($1.75) and is in Good condition due to some small missing pieces primarily at the top and bottom of the outside spine areas. Dust Jacket is now covered by a new clear mylar cover. Great Collectible Book that is 71 Years old!
