THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE

First edition, first printing. Publisher's original red cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Dorothy Wheeler illustrated dustwrapper. Illustrated with line drawings by Dorothy Wheeler throughout the text. A very good copy, the binding square and firm with a little bumping and rubbing to the spine tips, the cloth clean and bright. The contents, with two bookplates; one on the front pastedown, the other on the front endpaper, above which is a contemporary Christmas gift inscription to the same owner from her grandmother, and foxing to the closed text block edge, encroaching onto the page surface in places, are entirely complete and without loose or torn pages. Complete with the rubbed, nicked and creased dustwrapper that has small chips to the spine tips and fold corners. Not price-clipped (6/- net to the lower front flap). A scarce title in the correct, original dustwrapper.

The second book in the Magic Faraway Tree series following The Enchanted Wood (1941). [Summerfield, Tony: Enid Blyton, An Illustrated Bibliography, Part II].
