About This Item
Illustrated. One of a series of novels about the amusing adventures of Mrs. 'Arris from the 1950s and 60s. First edition. Little wear to the book other than a dampstain at the lower portion of the spine. The stain shows on the lower 5 cm of the dust jacket, about 3.5 cm of the spine itself, and 2.5 cm or less on the endpapers. It does not penetrate much further than that, as you can see by the photo of the title page. Beyond that, the book shows very little wear, with clean, tight and unmarked pages. The dust jacket has two significant tears of 3 cm at the spine (visible in the photos) and 5 cm along the lower right front edge (which you won't be able to see in the photos). This is a rather rare book.
