The Unsought FarmEva Webb & Tom BlauCountry Book Club1955First ThusHard CoverA nice copy of a really fascinating book. Green boards are very slightly bumped and have fading round the edges. The spine is more faded, especially at the top. Inside it's Very Good or even Fine-I've seen worse in (new) bookshops!66.5044
The White RidersGeoffrey WhittamCollins1950First EditionHard CoverRed boards very slightly faded at top, especially on spine where gold blocking has faded. Corners a little bumped. Bottom of book seems to have been badly trimmed on production as it's "ragged". Pages otherwise are clean and tightly bound with no markings.61.7547
The WandererJoan WanklynChildren's Book Club1955First ThusHard CoverGreen boards excellent with a very little bumping to top and bottom of spine. Pages tight and although edges are tanned there's very little browning inside. A sticker has been removed from the fep leaving a trace. Front and spine of dustcover are good, but back is missing the top part and there are some tears to the bottom corners.19.0035
Badger ValleyMonica & Sean Edwards, Frances WarlandSphere Books1978First ThusPaperbackSlight bumping to bottom front corner and minor dents to other parts of the cover but that sounds worse than it actually is. Pages just starting to brown but b&w photos are clean and undamaged.19.0045
Hidden in a DreamGeoffrey WhittamCollins (Evergreen)1966First ThusHard CoverLaminated dustwrapper has creasing to inside fold-overs and a sellotaped tab on the spine. The book is well loved (ok, well used! ) with a small tear off the corner of at least one page, library stamps at intervals and of course on the fep together with the usual remnants of the school library sticker. Nevertheless it's an intact, pleasant copy of a rare-ish title.17.1091
The Valley and the FarmThe Author, MainlyQuality Book Club1972First ThusHard CoverOne or two very minor chips and a few "bends" to top and bottom of dustwrapper, which is unclipped. A neat printed name appears on the fep. Pages are very good, with the exception of a slight bend mark on the bottom corner of a section of pages-not a crease, just a bend. There's a manufacturing fault on pp 81-88 inclusive where the guillotine has missed a paper fold error; in fact two of the pages are still connected indicating that the book may not have been read. The binding is certainly tight enough to indicate that. No fading; red edging to the top of the pages is still bright. A nice book and a fascinating story in so many ways.13.3087
The Summer of the Great SecretAnne BullenCollins1961 Hard CoverBlue boards good, spine faded and slightly bumped at top and bottom. Pages tight and unmarked with slight yellowing, but a very nice copy. Neat owner's name on fep. Dustcover is creased and chipped on front and at spine creases, but good on back.6.6540
The Summer of the Great SecretAnne BullenCollins1948First EditionHard CoverPale green boards are faded and stained, as is the spine, and both are bumped at top and bottom. Lyn Jolliffe has bookplate and her name on the inside in two places and there's a dedication to Sue dated 1951 as well. The binding is weakened between the FEP and the remainder, and between it and the back board, but the binding is still very intact. Pages seem free of marks and fading.6.65154
