ATTENTION COLLECTORS I bought this book as an adult collector, from a store, at least 20 years ago. From a smoke-free house, no smells or odours, but it has visible wear to the covers and a stain along the spine; taken into account in the price. It says copyright 1947 and has navy blue silhouette end papers and based on the end papers, my guess is that this book is from around the early '50s. SEE MY OTHER ADS ON THIS SITE, FOR MANY MORE VINTAGE NANCY DREW BOOKS, and also JUDY BOLTON, VICKI BARR and HARDY BOYS, to mention just a few. Pick up in Wascana View, SE area of Regina, SK.
