Secret of the Old Post-Box

Adventure designed for late-elementary-YA readers, illustrated throughout by Grace Paull, in 190 pages. Issued as a selection by the Weekly Reader Children's Book Club, with back DJ flap that included the tear-out bookmark, which is completely clean. These is not a "book club edition,'' though, but a true First Edition, first printing hardcover, with the $2.95 price intact on front flap. Hardcover book has teal cloth-covered boards.Condition is VG-/G+: completely clean, binding straight & strong. Flaws: pages tanned, very heavily around edges. Former owner's name in black marker on ffep & in pen at top edge of DJ, else unmarked. Bumped corners & slight rubbing. The unclipped DJ is bright & colorful, but downgraded to Poor due to a large chunk missing from back cover; looks nice as can be in new mylar cover! Our photos depict the exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same day shipping if ordered by 2 pm weekdays (PST); later orders, weekends & holidays ship very next day.
