About this Item

First Edition (First published 1961). As you can see from the photos, the light green covers are exceptionally clean and in very good condition. The edges and corners show no wear at all. The spine has just a sliver of color fade at its top and bottom edges. The gilt lettering on the spine is very bright. The page edges are clean. The front inside cover and front end paper are also perfectly clean. That's the case for the rear inside cover and end paper as well, although they are toned or tanned. The pages in the book are exceptionally clean. I'm not seeing any soiling at all. I'm also not seeing any creasing. No dogeared corners. The pages are slightly toned, but uniformly. There are no markings anywhere in the book. No attachments of any kind. And no one has written their name or anything else anywhere. You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. It's too is in very good condition. It's quite clean, which is a light amount of handling soiling on the white rear cover. There are no tears on the front, rear, or spine. There's very little wear, just a few tiny spots of rubbing. Anyway, the photos will allow you to make your own assessment. The flaps are in very good shape. The rear flap has some toning at its margins. I'm just noticing that there is a very tiny tear off the bottom edge of the rear flap, just measured it, 1/8th of an inch. The jacket will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. From the dust jacket: 'In the first of her re-written Venturing Abroad series Ray Dorien writes in her customary entrancing fashion of her visit to those popular Mediterranean playgrounds, the Balearic Islands, Majorca, Ibiza, and Minorca. This book is both a useful guide for the intending visitor and one that will evoke nostalgic memories of happy holidays amongst those who have been.'. Seller Inventory # 002646
