Hardback with dust jacket. Second impression of this Edward Ardizzone illustrated edition, which was first published in 1966. The original edition of Daddy-Long-Legs was first published in 1912. Publisher's original pale blue boards are slightly faded at the bottom edges. The binding is firm. Top edge tinted red. No previous owner's names or inscriptions. There is a small light brown stain to the bottom corner of the closed textblock edges and a pale brown stain affecting part of the back cover of the dust jacket (see photos). Front flap of dust jacket not price clipped. Apart from the stain the dust jacket is in very good condition, just some very minor rubs to the edges. 8 full page black and white drawings by Edward Ardizzone, printed on blue paper. pp. 184. 21cm tall. The dust jacket is supplied by us in a loose protective clear archival film sleeve. This does not adhere to the book or jacket in any way and it protects the jacket against wear. (Photographed without the film sleeve, to minimise reflection).
