Blue boards with gilt print. The front one has a design of Timothy wading through the water with little Monkey-Bear as a centrepiece. The boards are rubbed and the edges chipped, the the book is badly foxed throughout, pages 64 and 144 are cracked at the hinge, though the binding remains very good; page 183 has three closed tears, as have pages 221 to 224. There's a neat ownership signature on the front end paper and on the title page, and a gift inscription on the half title page. Includes 8 plates and a Coles Arcade sticker on front paste down. Not a pretty copy, but solid nonetheless.
