About This Item
Random House, 1958. First Edition So Stated. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good Dust Jacket. This old book with dust jacket is clean, solid and in great shape! This is a First Edition hardcover book with 175 pages including some illustrations. The binding is strong with all pages firmly attached. The pages are browned with age but are otherwise clean with no writing or tears. The copyright page states 1958 First Printing with no other dates or printings shown. There is the number F-14 on the DJ spine. The DJ has a color illustration of a man holding the reigns of a bucking brown horse. The dust jacket is over 99% intact with very light chipping on the spine edges and corners. I have placed the DJ in a fresh mylar jacket and this old book looks and feels great! We always ship in a sturdy cardboard box!
