About This Item
London: B.T. Batsford Ltd, (1960). First edition. Small quarto, green boards, pp. [96]. A book about Stratford-- upon- Avon. Inscribed to an unspecified recipient, "with best wishes from Joan the Pen / Joan Fleming 1960". I assume this book is by the same Joan Fleming who wrote detective stories, however I have been unable to confirm this beyond conjecture. Slight foxing to top page edge, top corner slightly bumped, else near fine; the dust jacket is lightly foxed on the interior, the jacket is a bit rubbed, with some edge wear and a 1" tear to the rear panel. A nice book, I don't see too many of these Batsford series books inscribed..
