First edition, first impression. 96pp, illustrated title page and line drawings throughout. Red publisher's cloth-covered boards, black lettering on the spine, black illustration on front panel. 8vo. Cloth is a little worn, rubbed and rounded at corners and spine ends, a few mild marks. Previous owner's inscription inked on slightly spotted front free endpapers, else internally neat, clean, bright and tight. In its original illustrated dust wrapper, shelf worn, rubbed on corners and slightly chipped at spine ends, a couple of tiny nicks on upper edge. Dust wrapper now protected in Mylar-style wrapper, fitted without the use of tape or adhesives.
A very hard to find vintage children's title.
