| Notes: Vintage Hardback Landmark Book with Dust Jacket special edition printed by Spencer Press. Only the First printing of the Spencer Press editions had Dust Jackets- so this is one of those early books! Book itself is in Very Good or better condition with a tight binding and clean crisp pages. Inside text appears UNREAD! There are just a few spots on a few of the outside page ends. These are small and have little effect on some of the outside borders. Outside cloth covers are very nice with some minor corner wear. Dust Jacket is in Good condition with some soiling primarily to the back cover and some edge chipping and smaller missing pieces from the top and bottom edges. Dust Jacket is now covered by a new clear mylar cover. Landmark Books and World Landmark Books are accurate, in-depth stories for young people in the 9-15 year old range. These living histories were written by award-winning authors or by men and women who experienced the events first hand. Written during the 1950's and 1960's and illustrated either with two-color drawings or clear photographs, the books are informative, enjoyable, and well worth reading and collecting. This is a non-Library book that has come from a private collection. |
