SHIPPING OFFERED
This novel was copyright by the author in 1941. This is the Second Popular Canadian Edition February 1947. Printed in Canada for Collins and Sons. Please take the photos as a guide to the condition of this book which the seller believes would be described as in Fair to Good vintage condition. The pages are clear and generally without stains or spotting.
We have not looked at each page but here are some observations from lightly flicking through the book.The front cover feels a bit loose in its attachment to the book but there are no visible tears. There are signs of the early pages being bent but not creased and there is perhaps slight water staining and some damage to corners. Page corners of 79 to 108 are definitely creased over - as damage - not by a reader marking the page they are up to. Likewise a couple of pages around p 500 have bent over corners. There is a slight tear on p 1149 at the top but no paper is missing. All 1176 pages appear to be there. The back cover also feels loose and there is a tear in the binding which is visible in the photos and extends along most of the length.
This seller has other vintage publications listed as well as newer works. We can combine items for collection or mailing and automatically offer a discount when multiple listings are purchased.
