BOND, Michael : A Bear Called Paddington

Collins 1968
 
First Edition 8th impression
 
Red Boards in pictorial dust wrapper
 
The book is in lovely tight condition and Very Good Plus overall with some bumps to the extremities and a little light spotting to the EP’s and half title – extremely light though! (one or two pencil marks to the FEP and a neat name to the rear EP)
 
The dust wrapper is in Very Good condition indeed and is virtually the same as the true first, except for the subsequent volumes to the rear panel, with closed chips and small closed tears to the extremities, spine head and tail and a little dustiness overall but nice and bright.
 
An extremely presentable copy of this highly prized book that is difficult to find in any impression of the First edition, especially with the dust wrapper so complete.
