little rubbing/chipping to edges/spine, a little splitting/slight loss to edges of spine, minor scuffing/soiling, some ink marks to front. Contents generally good with occasional splitting to hinges, back endpaper missing, very minor soiling. Both tableaux intact and in good condition with minor rubbing to edges. Gift inscription to ffep. Charming B&W illustrations by Grace Lodge throughout. Includes two colourful fold-out tableaux of a village street with various traditional shops, one at the front and one at the back which, including the covers of the book make a continuous panoramic view measuring just over 61'' in total. Originally, it came with at least 4 little card figures, but these are not present. 2 children visit the fictional village of Hatherby during their holidays, and find out what is available in the various shops there. A very quaint glimpse of life in an English village in the 1930s/40s.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
