Michael Bond – Paddington Abroad – First UK Edition 1961
£275.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Collins in London, 1961. This is a very good (or better) copy. The dust wrapper, carrying the Peggy Fortnum illustrations, has one small tear to the tail of the spine and front of the panel. It is bright throughout, though lightly sunned at the spine. The ‘P,A’ of Paddington is slightly rubbed to the front panel. It has not been price clipped and shows the original 10s. 6d. net price. The blue buckram is unmarked and brightly gilt at the spine. The text blocks are mostly clean throughout, though with a small blemish to the top edge. Overall, this copy is free from previous owners ink and is in very good (or better) condition.
The fourth Paddington title.
