About This Item
1939 hardcover as pictured. This is a childrens' book about trains. It is ex-library but the only indication seems to be a sticker on the front endpaper. Binding is firm. The attractive silver and blue cloth boards are rubbed and lightly soiled with a little fraying at head and tail of spine and at corners. Corners are gently bumped. Pictorial endpapers are tanned and have small stains at lower edge. Text is age tanned but appears unmarked. A few pages are mottled. No dust jacket. Your purchase helps support our small village library. s AR
