A super clean, bright copy of the US first edition. Bright cloth boards which look splendid in pink! Silver title lettering on the front and spine which looks lovely and crisp. Very minor knocks to the fore edge corner tips, noticeable on close inspection. No inscriptions and clean pages throughout. In fact the book looks to have been hardly read, if at all. The dust jacket is bright and clean and not price clipped, albeit with minor shop shelf wear such as light surface scuffing, which is hardly noticeable. Super, presentable copy.
