About This Item
New York: Triangle Books, 1947. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾"- 9¾" tall. Romantic trifle from just after the war--Peter and Jill are taken by surprise when the newspaper announces their engagements. There follow hijinks, misunderstandings, and yes, romance. For its age, this is quite good. Previous owner's name and tiny star sticker (1/4 in square) on front endpaper, otherwise the book is clean, binding tight--some typical browning to pages. Jacket is intact, although there is a small chip to top rear, small hole at the rear flap bend, and a couple of closed tears.
