This listing is for 'The Children's New Illustrated Encyclopedia' by John R Crossland, by Collins. There is no date that I can find inside. All pages are complete and readable. No writing inside. There is some discolouration due to age. There are two pages that have come out which are right at the front (please see photograph 4 to see these two pages- they are right at the front before the main title page and have a picture of a boat on them). However the book needs careful handling. There are no other completely loose pages bar the 2 mentioned at the front but others could easily become loose if not handled with care. Some of the pages are starting to come loose but are still intact.
