Very nice to see the illustrations of Pauline Baynes in larger format (compared to the UK 1st edition).

The spine is not faded, no foxing or offsetting.
A minor bump to the right top corner and a brown spot on the front of text block (not visible inside the book).

The endpapers are clean and bright, with no ownership inscriptions or other writing.

A colourful, well-preserved example of the uncommon 1978 reset edition, showcasing Pauline Baynes’s enchanting artwork.
