Hardcover, no dustjacket, copyright 1927, The Buzza Company, Sixth Printing. Cover has heavy edge wear--especially fraying near the corners, edge chips, and rubbing through the design to the cloth at the top spine. Rest of cover has general medium wear. Page edges have small areas of light foxing. Page 29/30 has corner ripped off (only a blank area missing). Various pages have small tears, small dirt/foxing spots, and other imperfections. Still a nice copy, priced to sell. Contact seller for pictures or more info. PLEASE NOTE: Bing-O the monkey wears a swastika, but is unrelated to naziism.
