About This Item
NY: Harper & Brothers; (1958). First Edition . Hardcover. The author's third book for children, about a family of pigs. Very good in a very good- dust jacket. Illustrated boards with black cloth spine. The boards and the dust jacket have the same illustrations front and rear. The book has a little shelfwear to the boards, and a small (1.5" square) area that is a little darkened on the front board because a jacket tear allowed the sun to reach it. The jacket, with $2.00 price present but bottom corner clipped, has a number of closed, creased tears at the edges, but very little loss. A clean copy internally, with no names or other writing in the book.
