About This Item
Bloomington, IN Indiana University Press, 1959. Paperback First Edition Thus (1959), so stated. First Edition Thus (1959), so stated. Very Good+ to Near Fine in Wraps: shows indications of careful use: mild rubbing and the faintest soiling to the yellow background field of the wrapper covers; a former owner's plate has been removed from the front free endpaper, leaving a little sticker residue; the price has been neatly blocked out at the upper front panel; the binding is square and secure; the text is clean. A handsome copy, structurally sound and tighly bound, showing barely discernible wear and a couple of very minor flaws. No longer absolutely pristine, but remains very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 12mo. (7.9 x 5.25 x 0.45 inches). 177 pages. Indexed. Illustrated. Bibliography. Language: English. Weight: 8.4 ounces. Trade Paperback.
