A well loved and well read copy of the 46th impression of the first paperback edition. The original children's cover. The spine has loosened a little from the foot and also a little at the head. The pages are clean throughout, if a little well handled at the edges, which are also sun toned. Curling at the fore edge/corners of the card covers and early pages. Child's owner inscription at the top edge of the inside front cover. These early impressions are becoming ever scarcer in any condition.
