Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Norman Rockwell (illustrator). 1st Edition. This oversized volume is fully illustrated, and the gatefolds are intact. The flaw is at the top of the spine, where the top edge is gouged, or maybe chewed by baby or pet. 1/2" flaw does not affect the titling on the spine, but the cardboard binding does break the red covers at that spot. The jacket is torn at that spot, but I've added inside scotch tape 2" to make it more presentable. Still, a decent reference copy. About 13" tall, 10" across, and half an inch deep. Photos on request.
