Contact seller5-star sellerHardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good Dust Jacket. 182 pp. Tightly bound. Corners not bumped. Text is free of markings. Book plate on front paste down. Acceptable to good dust jacket. The jacket is not price clipped but has one chip and 5 closed edge tears. I did not see a publication date listed although it co…uld be around 1957. This copy is smyth sewn. Smyth sewing is a method of bookbinding where groups of folded pages (referred to as signatures) are stitched together using binder thread. Each folded signature is sewn together individually with multiple stitches and then joined with other signatures to create the complete book block. This is the traditional and best method of bookbinding. John W. Wood (illustrator).
