The Story Of Jesus F Lucy Rudston Brown 1938 Bookano Pop-Up Hardback Vintage
Good
Vintage 1938 hardback showing heavy external wear consistent with age and use. Boards have overall rubbing, marks and mottling, with worn and fraying corners and spine ends, plus surface soiling and small stains. Endpapers are heavily tanned and foxed with scattered spotting, and a previous owner's name and address written on the front free endpaper. Text pages are uniformly toned with occasional foxing and handling marks but print and colour illustrations remain clear, and binding and pop-up mechanism hold securely.
