The second in the series of "Colour Books" by Enid Blyton.  First published by Methuen in 1946, this is a 1952 reprint.  

This book is in good condition. The red board covers are beautifully bright,with clear black titles, except for a couple of very small areas on the spine which are faded. There is minor rubbing and bumping to the corners and spine edges. 

Inside, the cream pages are crisp and clean, although they have yellowed a little with age. The text block edges are barely dusty and do not show any foxing. There are no inscriptions or pastedowns of any kind in this book. 

The dustjacket is original and is price-clipped. The dust jacket is in good condition. There are small areas of loss from the jacket: upper & lower spine , fold edges and very small chips from some areas on the edges. There is rubbing & creasing to the edges and spine. The spine is a little faded. The jacket has had minor repairs using archival Japanese tissue.


                                                      NB. Condition of Books and Book Repairs


When you purchase one of my Enid Blyton books, you can be assured that each book has been carefully inspected and lightly cleaned. I am not a professional book seller or book conservator: simply a collector of Enid Blyton books who wants to appreciate & maintain the condition of the books.


I may make minor repairs to the dust jacket and/or the interior/ exterior of the book, always using archival quality materials & only if I consider such repairs beneficial to the book and/or dust jacket. The repairs I make are completely reversible, unlike sticky tape, glues, adhesive contact film and other types of materials that are often used to quickly patch up books.


The books are priced according to their condition, whilst also considering the time & additional materials used to conserve & present the book in the best condition possible. All dust jackets are enclosed in a protective archival quality sleeve unless otherwise stated.
