A collection of mid-20th-century literature and non-fiction books, primarily comprising mass-market paperbacks with selected hardcovers.
Condition report:
The collection is in overall used condition with wear consistent with age. Many paperbacks exhibit significant spine creasing, rubbing, and surface loss, particularly evident among the Ladybird titles and earlier Penguin editions. Hardcovers show edge wear, corner bumping, and fading to the cloth bindings. Some paper wrappers show peeling, chipping, or minor tears at the extremities. Internal pages are expected to show typical age-related tanning.
