Watkins, Vernon - The Ballad of the Outer Dark

A UK first edition, first impression.

WRAPPER : The wrapper on this copy is bright and complete. It is unclipped, showing the price £3.00 on the inside flap. The front panel is bright, clean and unfaded. The spine has gently faded. The back panel is clean, showing inconsequential dulling at the edges. Looks sharp in protective plastic.

BOOK : The book is square and very tight. The boards are clean and unfaded. The corners are sharp. The pages are clean. No foxing. The closed page edges are sound - the top edge is slightly dusty. There are no loose or dog-eared pages. The binding is solid and without cracked hinges. There are no previous ownership inscriptions. A nice copy in a protected wrapper.
