Book is easily very good with crisp white pages and no writing inside. Dust jacket is good plus to very good minus with some small chips, edge wear and some wrinkling and small tears and a bit of moisture damage (on lower backside of dust jacket). The jacket lists Bomba titles on the back thru #10 Bomba Lost Explorers with light stains, with 3 Tom Swift Jr titles on the back inner DJ flap thru Swift & His Rocket Ship. Overall a nice True 1st edition of The Yellow Feather Mystery to add to your collection. The dust jacket is protected by a mylar cover. Small triangular chips left front near spine DJ not affecting titles or illustration , DJ spine ends light chips tears . The HARDY boys are summoned to jury duty and are surprised to find that the defendant is Aunt Gertrude, who is charged with running a house of prostitution. The majority of the jury wants to acquit, but the first vote is 10-2. One hundred eighty-seven votes later, the vote is still 10-2. The judge gavels a hung jury. Aunt Gertrude smiles. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Good.
