1953 Stock No. RBA 2009 / 165 £ 65.00
A cracking annual that I have clasified as in GOOD condition due to minor wear to the corners although the top front right has worn the paper away right on the tip and minor shelf wear to the top and tail of the spine and edges, but the cover is clean and bright and full of colour which this years annual you usually find faded this one isn’t. Inside there is no inscription and it has not been price clipped the pages are beautifully clean, stiff and bursting with colour, the painting competition has been completed in pencil crayon but on the whole a marvellous example of this vey rare annual.

So very very hard to find and in VERY GOOD condition with the corners of the glossy board covers square and sharp maybe a bump to the top front right, the spine full and well defined with some wear and bumping top and tail. Inside there is an inscription on the first illustrated page “To Paula with love from Auntie x Christmas 1954” and in the “belongs to box in the tiniest of writing “Nicola”. Every page is stiff, clean and bright, regretfully the painting competition on page 122 has been started very poorly in crayon, the binding is firm and sound. Overall a lovely rare annual.

The second of the Laminated board covers which have proven to be so fragile but this annual in GOOD+ condition with only a hint of bumping to the corners and to the top and tail of the spine bright and full of colour. Internally there is an inscription but the price has not been clipped and all of the pages are stiff, sound to the binding, and so clean, bright and bursting with colour. The crossword has been completed but the painting competition as can be seen from the photo’s has hardly been touched where it has been strated in water colour this has not transferred. All in all still a fabulous copy of this very rare annual.
