Joan Aiken – The Wolves of Willoughby Chase – First Edition 1962
£975.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Jonathan Cape in London, 1962. This is a near fine copy. The dust wrapper, illustrated by Pat Marriott, is lightly rubbed at the extremities though highly presentable. The corners are slightly nicked and there is a small mark to the top of the rear panel. It has been neatly price clipped but retains the original 12s. 6d. net price. The original publishers black boards are brightly foiled in silver at the spine. The text blocks are bright and white throughout and the internals are equally so. It is free from inscriptions. This is a very near fine copy.
The author’s second novel, and a classic of children’s fiction.
