First edition, first printing. Original blue cloth with black titles to the spine and upper board, in the Ethel "Bip" Pares illustrated dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding firm with a slight crease and lean to the spine, the extremities lightly rubbed and marked. The contents, with faint offsetting to the endpapers, light spotting to the closed text-block edge, prelims and occasionally the margins, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the good rubbed, nicked, creased and dust marked dustwrapper that has a few closed tears and small chips at the folds and corners. Correctly priced 3/6 net to the upper panel and spine.
