THE MASKED BATTERY

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original red cloth with black titles to upper board and spine. A better than very good copy, the binding square and firm, with bumping and rubbing to the spine ends and corners. The cloth, with some dustiness to the upper board, is faded and marked along the spine. The contents, with a small name and address in ink to the front free endpaper, lightly toning to the early and late pages and some foxing to the closed text block are otherwise clean throughout.

A penniless man discovers a mysterious spring of water in his back garden. From the author of 'Spirit of the Garden', 'Long Ago Stories' and 'Until that day'.
