First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Poor. Ivan T Sanderson (illustrator). 1st Edition. 160 pages, nicely illustrated by Ivan Sanderson. Undated but probably 1952 as learned elsewhere. Stories of treks and safaris to capture unharmed specimens of Africa's wild life for zoos, menageries and the like. "[A]nother instalment", per the blurb, "of first-hand adventure for armchair explorers". Book in quite reasonable condition: silver-colour printing on cover is bright, rubber stamp of previous owner on front pastedown, foxing marks across end papers, text pages generally good, spotting marks on outside edges of text block. Jacket poor: front illustration is good though there is a tear of 3cm in top middle; creased, worn and nicked on top and bottom edges with some losses; discolouration at spine; price-clipped; tape repairs on inside; odd marks also.
