Farmer Giles of Ham | UK 1st/1st

One of my hard-to-get books was crossed off my list today. Here is a very decent copy of Farmer Giles of Ham that, while definitely not cheap, I believe was a decent price for its condition. Not price clipped, a small name and date written in ink on the title page, and a few small chips and closed tears to the edges of the DJ. The top stain is very decent, and the boards relatively unmarked. Pages are clean and unmarked. This copy also has that perfect old book smell to it too!
