Lot Details

Shaggy Dog and other Surrealist Stories told by John Waller Illustrated by Frank Wilson Published Duckworth & Co., 1953. Books are sold as is, including any faults, and have not been collated.

Edition, printing and signature details are given in good faith and are not guaranteed unless stated in the description. Items are offered on behalf of vendors, and many will show wear consistent with age. This may include foxing, toning, ex-library marks, inscriptions, loose bindings, odours, or dust jackets that are missing, damaged or not original. Photos form part of the description, and bidders should look at them carefully. We are happy to provide condition reports and will do everything we can to answer every request.
