New York: Grossman Publishers, 1970. First printing. Hardcover. Very good/very good minus. 97 pp. Octavo. Red cloth over boards with black stamped postal illustration on front board and white stamped title on spine, with author's name stamped in black. Publisher's red top stain. Some very mild discoloration to top right corner of front board. Dust jacket is in very good- condition due to a previous owner having cut the top of the front flap and a corner off of the front cover. Some chipping to dust jacket near head of spine; dust jacket exhibits some closed tears. Previous owner's name penned onto front free end paper which doubles as the half title page. Hanff's "84, Charing Cross Road" is the heartbreaking record of correspondences she maintained with bookshop employees in London during WWII. By the time she made plans to visit, the book shop owner had passed away due to illness and the shop was closed soon after. This story has been made into a successful play, and later a TV series (1975) and film (1987).
