About This Item
From Wikipedia: "Plot. A rare and valuable Chinese vase is stolen from a pottery shop and the owner asks Nancy for help."
Very Good- condition. The cover has a blue cloth look, but I'm pretty sure it is a textured paper with a dark blue 1940s silhouette on front board, blue and white multi-scene end papers. There is a dark navy tint at the top of the pages. There are a couple stains on the bottom of closed book pages and one of those is also on the bottom of the individual pages. Please see photos. Otherwise text is clean and binding is tight. No dust jacket. No illustrations. A nice reading copy.
Please use photos as part of the description.
212 pages.
