Item description from seller

This book does not have a DJ which means it cannot be definitively identified as a first edition. The only copy right year given is 1957 which is the original publication year. However, it has other book points indicating a possible first printing- 1) flat, not glazed or shiny paper covering boards.2) Last page with text.is The story of Cat in the Hat enclosed within a blue hat shaped figure; this was dropped later printings. 3) The back cover is a duplicate of what was on DJ and is exact in text and design. This is a nice edition of this older Dr Seuss title. The illustrated paper boards are colorful but rubbed & soiled Spine has been taped back on boards; binding is firm - no missing signatures. Edge wear on corners and top & bottom of spine. Interior pages are colorful and fill the entire page. All pages are clean, no creases, or tears. Previous owner hand wrote name on inside front cover. This is not an ex-lib or remainder. Book size is approximately 6 7/8"W by 9 1/4" L. No DJ. See pictures. Note: We have a closed shop - so our books are not handled by public. We make every effort to fairly describe the condition of the book and identify any flaws (writing, tears, creases, folds), including that of the dust jacket. We use the "Fine or Near Fine" book condition judiciously when grading of the book or dust jacket.…
