Add to basketCream cloth stamped in gilt and brown. #464/1050. With eight full-page color illustrations by Alastair. The illustration opposite page 52 is signed in pencil, below the image. Title page printed in red and black, illustrations in red, sepia, and black. Condition: very good-near fine. A clean, tight copy that presents nearly fine. Covers: A small soil smudge about ½ x1 on both panels near center of spine; otherwise fine with no bumping or rubbing. Internally: near fine -- some light toning and spotting to front matter pages occasionally very faint foxing; this appears to be a defect in the paper, not external damage [see photos] -- not affecting any of the plates which were printed on different stock. We have handled several copies of this book and this is the nicest copy we have seen. The slipcase is in fair condition. Fully intact but partially split at spine, chipped at bottom spine, surface wear, rubbing to extremities; small inked marking below front label, small stain at right edge corresponds to the soiling on the covers and probably due to removing the book with unclean hand.

We guarantee the condition of every book as it's described on the AbeBooks web sites. If you're dissatisfied with your purchase (Incorrect Book/Not as Described/Damaged) or if the order wasn't delivered, you're eligible for a refund within 30 days of the estimated delivery date. As collectors ourselves, we know that sometimes a book arrives that just isn't quite what we expected, even though it was accurately described. We will refund those too, but in that case, we would like you to contact us ...
Shipping costs are based on an average weight, including packaging, of 2 LB, or 0.9 KG. We usually don't charge extra if you are above that, but If your book is very heavy or special handling is required we may add an extra shipping charge. This usually occurs only for books being shipped via priority mail or internationally; the extra cost for shipping can make the difference in whether we make a profit or take a loss on the sale. We will always contact you first to get your approval for the extra charge. Sometimes shipping doesn't cost as much as we estimate -- if it's a negligible amount we just let it be but if it is substantial, we usually refund the excess shipping. We do not insure our shipments*; if you would like your package insured let us know and we will quote you the extra cost for doing so. (*Domestic items being sent by priority mail are automatically insured by the post office for up to $50.)
