This old book with dust jacket is clean, solid and in great shape! This is a hardcover book with 213 pages including some illustrations. The binding is strong with all pages firmly attached. The pages are clean with no soiling, writing, or tears. The copyright page states 1954 Second Printing. This is definitely Not a former library book. The dust jacket is over 99% intact with light chipping on the edges and corners. I have placed the DJ in a fresh mylar jacket and this old book looks and feels great! We always ship in a sturdy cardboard box!
