About This Item
G. P. Putnam's Sons, 1928. 5th or later Edition. Hardcover. Fair/No Jacket. This robust copy is in fair condition. It has been subject to careless storage and there is much wear about the edges and the spine due to this. The cloth cover bodies are generally good and clear with comparatively little marking. There is insect damage to the bottom paper trim edge and to the spine seams. The spine has an open wound to the head and wear to the foot. The inside back cover has cracked through to the stitching. Nonetheless passing by all of this surface damage and wear, the contents are firm, clear and complete. There is some foxing on the pages but they are largely clear and can be used with confidence and excitement. fk. Our orders are shipped using tracked courier delivery services.
