Price: $75.00Judy Bolton The Discovery At The Dragon's Mouth Book 31 1st Ed DjThis is a hard to find old Judy Bolton Mystery Stories book, with the hard cover reddish-brown tweed book having a multi-color printed dust jacket. Book #31 in the Judy Bolton Mystery series by Margaret Sutton. Photo shows the paper dust jacket cover, The Discovery at the Dragon's Mouth, #31 printed on dust jacket binding outer edge middle, published by Grosset & Dunlap (no Grosset & Dunlap number is printed on the outer dust jacket, on the inside front flap at the bottom under the publisher name is printed the number 100150 in black and the number 100100 is printed in red at the top of this inside front flap). Copyright date on back of title page is 1960. We believe this to be a first edition because a front of book inside page lists other books in the series ending this list with this book's title. The inside back cover flap of the dust jacket also has same list also ending with this book. The outside back cover lists The Vicki Barr books, ending with The Silver Ring Mystery. The inside front flap of the dust jacket provides a summary of the book. Book measures about 5 1/4 x 7 5/8 inches. Used condition, not mint, with much reading/age/use wear to the dust jacket. The book itself is in great condition, inside clean & tight, with just a few tiny brown spots. Dust jacket wear includes along the top and bottom edges folding/wrinkling/chipping/small pieces missing/small tears, creases, scuffing, etc., particularly at the top and bottom of the spine. At the top and bottom of the spine there are vertical tears, with the top tear curving back like a backwards J through the name of the book on the spine, with this prevented from further ripping by old tape on the inside of the dust jacket. There is also another small tear near the bottom spine but interior to the front jacket near the M in Margaret Sutton's name (as if this was pierced here). There is an about 1 inch long vertical tear on the front edge along where it meets the inside front flap, with much vertical creasing lines along the front flap edge and a small triangular tear along the front flap edge at the bottom. There are similar but smaller tears at the top and bottom of the flap edge for the back cover flap. There are fold lines visible on the front of the book through and below the word Bolton at the top, and other scuffing/white lines in this top A Judy Bolton Mystery wording. There is some yellowing/dirt on the inside of the dust jacket particularly where it covers the back of the book. This book was clearly enjoyed by the former owner! Still a hard to find book, particularly with its dust jacket. Please note that we have two books in this series listed for sale separately. If you wish to purchase more than one book, please e-mail us before placing the order since the shipping information has been inputted for a purchase of just one book and will not calculate the savings you would get when purchasing more than one shipped together in the same package (we will need to handle this for you).
