Very Good in Wraps: shows very little wear or signs of use at all, but an insect or rodent has nibbled the backstrip, obliterating the titles - and ligtht nibbling near the upper corner of the rear panel; the binding is slightly cocked but the binding remains almost square; the expected light tanning to the text pages; the binding remains secure; the text is clean. Free of creases to the panels. Free of creases to the backstrip. Free of any creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting or marginalia or marks in the text. Free of ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, or labels. An attractive copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, but showing a serious cosmetic flaw. Overall appearance: bright and clean. Corners sharp. Not far from "As New". NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo.(8 x 5.5 x 0.5 inches). xvi, 185 pages. Language: English. Weight: 8 ounces. First published by Harper & Row in hardcover in 1958. Trade Paperback.
