Me and Catharine Susan earns an honest penny

Card covers, with silk tassels. [24]pp including colour illustrations. 5.75 x 4.75 inches approx. (144mm x 123mm).
Covers rubbed and worn, especially to spine; foxed/spotted, mainly to front; a touch grubby/dusty and marked; light creasing. Pages a little dusty/grubby with occasional mark; some foxing/spotting throughout especially to margins/edges.
Nonetheless, showing wear commensuate with age and handling but remains a reasonably nice copy – attractive.
