Appears this was a X-Library book at some point and there is still a card pocket in the back (with the removable card inserted still!). Binding is quite shaken and there is a spine lean. The book is a bit fragile to handle but for a 82 year old first printing that was used as a library book at some point, it's held up rather well. Glossy frontispiece intact but some webbing starting to show on the binding there (webbing also showing some on the back blank endpaper). Pages have a few soiled spots but overall very clean. Back of the book has 5 pages of advertisements including 29 Tom Swifts, 7 Don Sturdys, 10 Radio Boys tiTLes, 5 Garry Graysons and 5 Western Stories for Boys titles. Also the letter 't' in "talking" on page 31, line 12 is complete. A tough, tough book to locate and a cool part of Hardy history since it's the very first printing of the first title in the series.
