FAIR CONDITION
This sale is for a
vintage edition entitled “The Mating
Season,” by P. G. Wodehouse (1881-1975).
It was published
by Penguin Books Ltd., of Harmondsworth, Middlesex, and is the 1965 fourth printing
of the 1957 FIRST PRINTING in this form (vintage softback, formerly first published
in hardback in 1949) with a front cover photographic illustration of Ian
Carmichael as Bertie Wooster (a tie-in edition to the BBC series The World of
Wooster).
The book measures
7.1 inches x 4.3 inches and has 249 pages.
The book is in internally
neat condition for a softback of its age, with fading to the pages, heavier
near the rims, with wear/bumps/creasing to the cover (frayed around the bottom
of the spine). There are NO inscriptions/book-plates and NO other ink or pencil
markings in the book. The binding is used
but still good with heavy creasing along the spine, and no loose or missing
pages.
A good reading copy
of this vintage edition.

Unwinsbooks have held down shipping prices
from 2013-2020 in spite of small increases in postage costs. However, Royal Mail Prices dramatically
changed on 1 July 2020, as a result of exceptional cost increases outside of their
control, so we are reluctantly having to pass on pricing increases for parcels
being sent overseas (primarily USA, New Zealand, Australia and the Rest of the
World).
These costs are a direct result of:
“Royal Mail, always aim to deliver the best
value international services. We fully recognise that these changes are
significant. This was a decision we reluctantly took but is necessary in view
of the increased costs borne by Royal Mail.”
If the Royal Mail reduce their charges in
the future (in particular what they term “Temporary Air Carrier Supplement
Pricing”) unwinsbooks will reduce the international costs accordingly.
Unwinsbooks always
obtain a proof of postage receipt from the Royal Mail. Packages over Royal Mail size rules may be
sent by courier (customer will be informed).
Goods will be WELL PACKAGED by Unwins Books
and dispatched once payment has cleared.
