Sobre este artículo
Black cloth covered boards with facsimile Author initials in gilt on front cover. Gilt lettering on spine. Water stain on top of text block affecting some pages with blue stain marks. Pages are not wrinkled, and this had very little effect on integrity of text. Images on request. No other defects noted.
DJ has slight age toning. Original price of $4.00 intact. DJ in VG condition, except for two tiny open tears on spine and on the top of the front cover.
The Child Buyer was shortlisted for the National Book Award in 1961.
