About this copy
Hardcover edition of Hoffnung's humorous illustrated collection of musical caricatures, featuring his own drawings throughout. The copyright page with full printing history was not available to examine, so the specific printing of this copy cannot be confirmed. The book is housed in its original price-printed dust jacket (4s.
6d. net, unclipped), which shows considerable wear consistent with age and handling.
Condition
- Book
- Fair – text block appears clean; boards not fully examined in photos but book appears sound.
- Dust jacket
- Fair – significant chipping and small losses to spine ends and corners, tears to front and rear panels, general soiling and toning throughout. Price panel intact and legible.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
