Description

First edition (1974) by Michael Bond. Here you are bidding on a ‘super fine’ copy of the tenth Paddington adventure. This is the first U.K. edition published by Collins in 1974. We are most particular about describing collectable first edition books and this is an exceptional example. The boards are square and clean and there are no internal markings. The pictorial dust wrapper has not been price clipped and is in great shape. In protective, removable clear cover. Other first edition copies are available to buy but none are in this condition. A charming story of the lovable bear from darkest Peru who comes to live with an English family. See also the Michael Bond autographed official first day cover elsewhere in this auction.
