About This Item
182 pp. Picture of dachshund on white paste-on front cover, black printing on yellow, slightly darkened, cloth boards. Age tanned, stained pastdowns, ffep, and rfep. Gift inscription on ffep. A small piece, lower right corner missing on page 3. The title page and frontispiece are separated and the spine is loose but not completely separate. Could be easily repaired. There is minor spotting throughout. Nevertheless, a pretty good copy of an extremely hard title to find in any edition, in any condition. The story of the little dachshund named Fritzie told by him.
