About This Item
London: John Day Company, 1964. Hardcover with unclipped dust jacket, 191 pages, plus black-and-white illustrations; very gently used, tight in binding, hardly a trace of shelf wear other that gentle bumps to spine ends, but the covers are heavily discoloured (possibly some strange type of foxing I have never seen before as only the covers are affected, no staining is evident to the endpapers nor the pages nor inside the DJ), no aromas, interior very clean and unmarked; DJ intact due to clear tape repairs to spine inside, numerous chips and short tears. . First American Edition. Hard Cover. Fair/Very Good -.
