First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The Work-Play Books Second Reader - October reprint of first edition from April of same year. Ex libris stamp indicates former property of a public school district, but things could be worse. Markings seem to have been concentrated upon pencil-scrawled notes of various readers along the bottom of title page. Minimal water damage may have stiffened pages but hardly interferes with readings. The exterior boards may have seen better days, but the page within remain still bright and unmolested, save for what has been mentioned. Fair at worst. See photos.
