First edition, first printing. Publisher's original blue cloth with titles and borders in black to the upper board and spine, in dustwrapper. A very good or better copy, the binding firm with a little bubbling to the upper board, the cloth bright and fresh. The contents, with a rectangular strip of offsetting to the front endpaper and some toning to the text block edge, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the good rubbed and nicked dustwrapper that is chipped with loss to the spine tips and with several closed tears (secured with five small pieces of tape to the underside). Correctly priced 3/6 net to the toned and slightly faded spine.
(McIlvaine A46a).
