Fiction for boys and girls. Book 1, 1961. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 61-13296
From back cover: "Gulliver Queen, nephew of the famous detective, Ellery Queen, doesn't want to be a detective. But when Gully and his new friend, Fisty Jones investigate the strange underwater noises in the Hudson River, they suddenly find themselves deep in a mystery that Gully can't resist tackling.
Good condition. Color on front and back cover are good, but covers show wear, rubbing, plus edge and corner wear. Diamond design end papers, but front end paper has name and address in marker, and back end paper has had pencil writing that was erased. Book is still tight, but pages have seriously age tanned, plus there is some edge spotting, and a few bent corners. Text and images are good - no marks noted. Please see photos.
