About This Item
This classic children's book is in poor condition but still bound together except for a couple of loose pages. The spine is torn and mostly missing and the boards are soiled, scuffed and bumped. The hinge is loose and cocked but still in tact. Pages are slightly yellowed with age and soiled from use. The illustrations are slightly faded but still colorful and intact. See images for condition. Other listings of this book date it as 1881
All proceeds benefit The Friends of the San Anselmo Library. No expedited shipping outside of the United States.
