ESIO TROT

First edition, first printing. Publisher's blue cloth with titles in gilt to the spine, in the Quentin Blake illustrated dustwrapper. Illustrated throughout with black and white plates by Quentin Blake. A better than very good copy, the binding firm with light bumping to the spine tips, the cloth and gilt bright and fresh. The contents are clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. The top edge of the text block is a little spotted. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper, which is lightly spotted to the upper and lower edges of the flaps. Not clipped (£6.95 net to the lower front flap).

The last of Dahl's books to be published in his lifetime.
