About This Item
Houghton Mifflin, 1959. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Fortnum, Peggy. Stated "Sixth printing C" so circa 1964. A tight, unread copy of the further adventures of everyone's favorite lost, marmalade-loving bear. The book has no markings and is illustrated throughout with Fortnum's charming line drawings. Jacket has an amusing mirror-image cover. Spine is either sunned or soiled (hard to tell) and very minor chipping to bottom edge; jacket is price-clipped. A great copy.
