Mister Postlethwaite's Reindeer And Other Stories : First Printing Chopping, Richard

True first British printing with original unclipped jacket (6s). Illustrated by the author. The author is best know for the illustrations of the jackets for the James Bond novels. Jacket has faults - namely edge/shelf wear, a few small (largest approx. 1 cm) tears, few marks, a little patchy browning (including to spine), the odd spot of foxing, a little patchy loss (mainly to head/tail of spine and to corners), patchy creasing/rubbing to edges, a little pushing/rubbing to head/tail of spine, little pushing/bumping to corners, little creasing/rubbing/browning to front/back inner flaps and is in only good condition. Boards are near fine (having been well protected by the jacket) with a hint of pushing/bumping to corners, the odd small bump/rub to edges and minor pushing/rubbing to head/tail of spine. Minor spine lean. Pages are generally clean and the binding is tight. Neat gift inscription in pen to front end-paper. Pages bit tanned. Odd mark/spots of foxing to page edges, tops and bottoms. Occasional small marks/scattered foxing (especially to first few pages). No other faults. All books described honestly and accurately. Paypal accepted.
