A lovely 1931 copy published by Cupples & Leon Company and illustrated by Howard L Hastings. There is shelf wear, and some fading of the spine and staining on the for edge. Inside the pages are crisp and clean. Minimal yellowing. There is what appears to be a slight crack on the front hing but it does not seem to impact the tightness of the binding. I tried to take good photos so please see those for the best representation of the condition.
